We are committed to managing water resources in an ethical and sustainable manner, focusing on quality of service, and protecting the environment.
Acea Ato 2 manages the entire integrated water service in Rome and in other 96 Municipalities within its Province.
We work to ensure increasingly more efficient services and generate value for the territory on which we operate.
Checks on aqueducts and large supply conduits are carried out regularly and thoroughly, and work is scheduled to improve water management and optimize pressure in the distribution network.We have increased scheduled maintenance interventions on our systems: 130 km of the network will be upgraded during 2020 alone. To increase the resilience of the aqueduct system that supplies the City of Rome, we are working on new strategic projects on the Peschiera and Marcio aqueducts, with the adoption of innovative and sustainable technical solutions.
In Peschiera, the project involves the construction of a second pipeline, long approximately 27 km, to connect the spring to the Salisano node, the upper part of the Peschiera-Le Capore aqueduct system. The second pipeline will ensure the security and resilience of the supply conduct for Rome and the rest of the territory. Find out more
The two parallel aqueducts – first and second Marcio aqueducts – that stem from Acqua Marcia’s springs, located in the valley of the River Aniene, have been supplying water to Rome and other Municipalities for over 100 years. The process to make the system more efficient is underway.
We use innovative technologies to carry out thorough checks and identify leaks on our entire water distribution network, approximately 13,000 km long. Over the last three years, this has allowed us to save 79 million cubic meters of water.
Acea Ato 2 is also progressively districtualizing its entire water distribution system. The procedure, aimed at delimiting districts or water areas to achieve a more efficient network, also includes carrying out research and keeping under control leaks in the individual districts.
Communicating with customers and the people we come in contact with is essential. Our awareness campaigns sensitize citizens on the importance of saving water and provide guidelines on how to manage this precious resource.
We launched the “Protecting the future” campaign for a responsible use of water during the summer period.
In summer, consumption rises as drinking water is inappropriately used to water plants, vegetable gardens, wash cars and fill swimming pools. The objective of “Protecting the future” is to promote a sensible use of water.
As part of a circular economy plan to reduce movements and the impact of producing paper bills, our information campaigns encourage customers to use our digital channels, such as MyAcea, and opt for our on-line billing service.
In 2019, to raise awareness about sustainability and the importance of saving water among children, Acea Ato 2 started organizing events in collaboration with local authorities, to show young school children and their teachers how the water cycle works and how technology can be used to protect and ensure the good quality of water in Rome and its surrounding areas.
