SUEZ represents more than 120 years of effort to meet the new needs of customers, in local authorities and industry, as they face new environmental and societal challenges: designing and operating smart and sustainable cities, saving resources and reducing the environmental footprint, adapting to climate change, producing differently by integrating secondary raw materials in the production chains, creating alternative resources, in particular in regions where water is scarce, or developing local and renewable energy sources by waste recovery. The group supplies drinking water to 92 million people, delivers wastewater treatment services to 65 million, collects waste produced by almost 50 million, recovers 14 million tons of waste each year and produces 5,138 GWh of local and renewable energy.
