services … ” , “ … having regard to the economic analysis … ” and “… in accordance in particular

ARERA adopted a comprehensive definition of tariff proposal, named “specific regulatory scheme”, to be
adopted by EGA, with the involvement of service supplier, and to be detailed for a four-year regulatory
period. The “specific regulatory scheme” includes:
Tariff methodology:
regulatory scheme
▪ disentangling all the relevant measures to be
implemented in order to achieve the
predefined quality objectives
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MANAGEMENT
PLAN (IMP)
FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC PLAN
(FEP)
▪ specifying revenues, average tariff for end-
users and all the costs to be reimbursed to
the supplier
ENTRUSTMENT CONTRACT (EC)
▪ clarifying liabilities of EGA and service supplier
according to the standard framework
defined by ARERA
Evidence-based information, both on accounting data and on technical
and contractual parameters, are combined with the objectives to be
achieved and with the corresponding envisaged measures, in a
framework in which the roles and liabilities of the parties are clarified.

INFRASTRUCTURE &

PLAN (IMP)
includes:
▪ Criticalities of the territory
▪ Targets to reach, in order to solve
critical issues
▪ Infrastructures to realise during
the regulatory period to reach
targets
STRATEGIC
INVESTMENTS PLAN
(SIP)
▪ includes strategic infrastructures to realize:
- which realization requires necessarily more than 1 year, also due to their technical complexity
- considered a priority by the Local Authority
▪ time period 2020-2027
▪ admitted infrastructures:
- for every service (aqueduct, sewerage and wastewater treatment)
- useful life not less than 20 years
the time schedule specifies elements of
coherency with River basins planning and
foreseen public contributions
Since the 1st tariff method:
Since 2020:
by 2027, should foresee a rate of
renovation coherent with the asset
useful life and have to specify
convergence measures

Some key data: planned vs realised Investments
RQTI EFFECTS:
▪ An increase in Planned Investments
▪ Technical quality is increasing among operators in terms of water losses,
service interruptions, sewerage system adequacy, sludge disposal and
wastewater treatment
▪ Strong positive correlation between realised investments and
performances in technical quality
2020-2023

€/per capita
Since 2014:
▪ CAGR 14-21 +14,9%
Planned Investments
▪ Similar trend in realised
investments 97,8% in 2019
In the third regulatory period:
▪ Planned investments 2020-
2023 per capita are about
263€
(65,75 euro per year)

• Water is a public good with no market
• Services typically offered under local monopoly, with no price signals for
efficient expenditure
• Externalities to address (i.e. affordability, EU environmental targets)
• High CAPEX and OPEX for dw & ww services to recover (art. 9 WFD)
• Public utility targets for companies: consumers need to be protected (i.e.
good quality, security, continuity of services)
Regulators ensure universal access to drinking water & sanitation services,
promoting good quality, fair prices and environmental sustainability through tariffs
Why regulating drinking water and waste water?
