Water

Vision

The gap between supply and demand for fresh water will only widen if we do not use it more efficiently and economically:

  • The global drinking water shortage will rise to 40% in 2030
  • The rising need for food (especially meat) will reinforce this
  • By 2025, 1.8 billion people will live in areas of absolute water scarcity
  • The largest water consumers: agriculture (70%), industry (20%) and individual users (10%) must look for ways to use water more efficiently

Ambition

VP Capital wants to contribute to the progress towards sustainable, responsible water usage through investments in these solutions:

  • New infrastructure and systems that increase water resources: research, desalination and treatment of waste water
  • Increasing current water efficiency: improved irrigation, detection of leaks and measuring equipment
  • Improving water quality and sanitization: advanced systems for filtering and purification
