Assessment of full cost recovery pricing of water

Description: Assessment of full cost recovery pricing of water Calculating a price that reflects the true value of water is not a simple task, although it is critical both for the effectiveness and integrity of the water pricing system. In terms of regulatory principles, the WFD Article 9 introduces the principle of cost recovery for water services in accordance with the polluter pays principle and requires the internalisation of Environmental and Resource Costs (ERC). However, in terms of practice, the approaches and calculation methods for inclusion of external costs are still debated. There is a need to assess how pricing (and other economic instruments) could contribute to achieving WFD economic objectives: cost recovery, polluter pays principle and incentive pricing.
