What is the Blue Water Efficiency Certificate?
The Blue Water Efficiency Certificate is a certification system that aims to help businesses reduce their environmental impact by managing water resources effectively and sustainably. This certificate, issued under the Water Efficiency Regulation published by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (ETKB), mandates the measurement and monitoring of water in facilities, the determination of loss and leakage rates, and the implementation of efficiency-enhancing practices.
The Blue Water Certificate is a benchmark of excellence in water management for industrial facilities, hotels, shopping malls, organized industrial zones (OIZs), and public institutions.
