The flow indicator for the ES “Surface water for drinking with minor or no treatments” measures the total water utilization through the public water supply system at the point of delivery, i.e. taps and faucets. The Alps are a major provider of water for the whole Alpine Space, and the water quality of the Alpine springs is excellent. However, the rising number of residents in many cities in the Alpine Space is adding pressure on the drinking water resources.

The demand indicator for the ES “Surface water for drinking with minor or no treatments” represents the total abstraction of freshwater per municipality on an annual timescale. It is the amount of water that is removed from springs, reservoirs, and other sources every year to be used in the public water system, whether or not this water is then withdrawn at a tap or faucet. Similar to the previous map, the water abstraction and usage are elevated where population densities are higher; the municipalities with the highest demand are metropolitan areas, cities and other settlements.
