Solutions for public utilities and municipalities.

Cities face the challenge of delivering reliable, sustainable and affordable water services amid urbanisation, climate pressure and limited public budgets.

Our role

Resilient, investable water systems for the public sector.

Almar supports public authorities and utilities by developing resilient and investable water systems through an integrated model combining infrastructure, operations and financing for long-term performance.

Our role goes beyond delivering assets. We act as long-term partners, structuring and operating systems that align with each city’s regulatory framework, financial capacity, and service goals — helping municipalities mobilize private capital, optimize risk allocation, and shift toward performance-driven public services.

What we do

Integrated solutions, adapted to municipalities.

We deliver integrated solutions aligned with our core capabilities, adapting them to the specific needs of municipalities and public utilities.

Water infrastructure

Water Infrastructure

We design and develop infrastructure across the full water cycle, ensuring reliable supply, treatment, and reuse in urban environments.

  • Water transportation: large-scale transmission and urban distribution
  • Drinking water treatment: desalination and potable water systems
  • Wastewater treatment: sanitation infrastructure for public health
  • Water reuse & recycling: circular solutions for freshwater pressure
Asset lifecycle services
