| Summary: | There are close to four hundred water
utilities in Indonesia with varied performance and capacity
but only around half are considered well performing.
Inefficient operations has been identified as one of the key
issues hampering performance and reducing utilities’
capacity to provide reliable water supply services. If not
addressed, water utilities’ inefficiency could hamper
government efforts to achieve development targets. High
rates of nonrevenue water (NRW) pose a major challenge to
the operational efficiency of many of Indonesia’s water
utilities. This case study is part of a series prepared by
the World Bank’s Water Global Practice to highlight existing
experiences in the water sector. The purpose of the series
is to showcase one or more of the elements that can
contribute toward a Water in Circular Economy and Resilience
(WICER) system. This case focuses on interventions on the
utility’s supply side to increase efficiency and minimize waste. |
