Introduction

This report focuses on the South African water sector and covers the collection, distribution and purification of water to household, agricultural, industrial, commercial and other users. Water testing laboratories are also covered. \r\n\r\nSouth Africa’s Constitution recognises that access to sufficient water and decent sanitation is a basic human right. It also establishes government as the custodian of all our water resources, responsible for ensuring that water as a resource from rivers, lakes and dams is allocated equitably and used beneficially in the public interest. South Africa has moved from a water-stressed country to a water-scarce one. It is predicted that South Africa will form part of the extreme water scarcity category by 2025. South Africa is facing complex water challenges that include extreme drought and flooding due to climate change, poor and failing infrastructure, inadequate technical capacity, corruption and mismanagement and unacceptably low levels of service delivery. The quality of rivers and ground water remains poor, signalling weaknesses in water resource management. The Department of Water and Sanitation estimates the water infrastructure investment deficit to be R33bn per annum. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for universal access to water and sanitation. Three million people in South Africa do not have access to basic water supply and 14.1 million do not have access to safe sanitation.

Report Coverage

This report focuses on the South African water sector and covers the collection, distribution and purification of water to household, industrial, commercial and other users. It includes information on the size and state of the sector and pertinent information on infrastructure development, corporate actions, regulation and issues of corruption, non-payment and leaks. There are 41 profiles that include municipalities, research institutions, and major water utilities and water boards such as Umgeni Water, Rand Water and the Amatola Water Board.

Introduction

This report focuses on the South African water sector and covers the collection, distribution and purification of water to household, industrial, commercial and other users. Water testing laboratories are also covered. Municipal sales of water of R10.7bn contributed 10.2% to total revenue of all municipalities of R104.5bn in Q4 2019. The water sector has had some success in the continued roll-out of basic water and sanitation services to the population since 2016, although dilapidated infrastructure and widespread non-payment continue to present problems. The quality of wastewater treatment has shown a marked decrease over the last four years and industry analysts suggest that the water sector is on the verge of an infrastructural crisis exacerbated by institutional ineffectiveness and under-investment.

Strengths

• Installed infrastructure network is large.
• Robust strategic framework.

Weaknesses

• Critical shortage of skills.
• Dysfunctional infrastructure.
• Institutional maladministration.
• Sanitation segment is operating near or at capacity.
• Under-investment in the sector.

Opportunities

• Desalination technologies.
• Infrastructure investment and construction opportunities.
• Private sector partnerships to reduce municipal inefficiencies.
• Water research.

Threats

• Continued breakdown of infrastructure, particularly wastewater treatment plants.
• Continued institutional ineffectiveness at a municipal and national level.
• Drought and climate change.
• Population growth and increasing water demand may result in a significant water shortage by 2025.

Outlook

The Water Research Commission and the Department of Water and Sanitation suggest that, as demand naturally increases, South Africa could face a water supply deficit of around 17% by 2025. Increasingly dysfunctional infrastructure and institutional mismanagement, which undermine the current capacity and quality of the water supply, mean it is possible that the situation could be far worse than currently estimated. Capital expenditure on infrastructure is increasing, although behind the levels thought to be required, but municipal ineffectiveness and a lack of skills mean these measures are often ineffective. Despite the continued successes of the sector in extending basic water and sanitation supply to South Africans, the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research notes that, it is “illogical to build more infrastructure without addressing the underlying factors that lead to the failure of this infrastructure”.

Report Coverage

The detailed report on the South African Water sector examines current conditions, achievements and developments as well as factors that influence the success of the sector. Profiles for 40 entities are provided. These include municipal Water Boards countrywide and companies such as Water and Sanitation Services South Africa (Pty) Ltd whose clients include metropolitan, district and local municipalities, national and provincial government departments, water boards and mines. Also profiled are companies such as DD Science CC, an independent commercial laboratory that undertakes water analysis, and SGS South Africa (Pty) Ltd which is involved in wastewater treatment.

Introduction

This report focuses on the South African water sector and covers the supply, distribution and quality of water throughout the country. Municipal sales of water totalled some R30bn in 2016 while sanitation service charges amounted to R11.8bn and the sector employed some 11,600 people. The water sector has met with some success in the continued roll-out of basic water and sanitation services to the South African population in 2016 although dilapidated infrastructure and widespread non-payment continue to present problems. The quality of wastewater treatment has shown a marked decrease over the last year and many industry analysts suggest that South African water sector is on the verge of an infrastructural crisis exacerbated by institutional ineffectiveness and under-investment.

Strengths

• Installed infrastructure network is large.
• Robust strategic framework.

Weaknesses

• Critical shortage of skills.
• Dysfunctional infrastructure.
• High rates of non-revenue water.
• Institutional maladministration.
• Sanitation segment is operating near or at capacity.
• South Africa is dry and suffers from a lack of water resources.
• Under-investment in the sector.

Opportunities

• Desalination technologies.
• Infrastructure investment and construction opportunities.
• Private sector partnerships to reduce municipal inefficiencies.
• Water research.

Threats

• Continued breakdown of infrastructure, particularly wastewater treatment plants.
• Continued institutional ineffectiveness at a municipal and Departmental level.
• Drought, disaster and climate change.
• Natural population growth and increasing water demand may result in a significant water shortage by 2025.

Outlook

The Water Research Commission and the Department of Water and Sanitation suggest that, as demand naturally increases, South Africa could face a water supply deficit of around 17% by 2025. Combined with increasingly dysfunctional infrastructure and institutional mismanagement, which undermine the current capacity and quality of the water supply, it is possible that the situation could be far worse than currently estimated. According to ActionAid, South Africa faces the prospect of a “full-scale water crisis by 2020,” should the necessary measures not be taken. Capital expenditure on infrastructure is increasing, although behind the levels thought to be required, but municipal ineffectiveness and a lack of skills entail that these measures are often ineffective. Despite the continued successes of the sector in extending the basic water and sanitation supply to South Africans, the CSIR notes that, it is “illogical to build more infrastructure without addressing the underlying factors that lead to the failure of this infrastructure.”

Report Coverage

The detailed report on South Africa’s water sector describes current conditions, provides information and statistics on the basic supply and quality of water, and discusses factors influencing the success of the sector. The report profiles 41 players, including the municipalities in every province as well as water service providers such as Johannesburg Water, the Midvaal Water Company and the Greater Nelspruit Utility Company, which provide services on behalf of municipalities. Also profiled are a number of private companies including Aveng Water (Pty) Ltd, which offers mine and wastewater treatment and assists municipalities in providing long-term potable water supplies for domestic consumption, and Bureau Veritas Testing and Inspections South Africa (Pty) Ltd, which has three laboratories involved in the testing of water, air, soil and waste.

Introduction

This report focuses on the South African water sector, and covers the collection, purification, testing and distribution of water. Revenue accruing from water services is worth R34bn per annum and the sector directly employs around 12,000 people. The capital value of all installed water infrastructure is R1,220bn and the industry is the recipient of heavy government grants and investment. Since 2015 the water system has been operating at near capacity and expansion is required to keep abreast of growing demand. However, the sector is beset by difficulties because of the ineffective implementation of the requisite expansion.

Strengths

• Large installed infrastructure network.
• Robust strategic framework.

Weaknesses

• Critical shortage of skills.
• Dysfunctional infrastructure.
• High proportion NRW and water losses.
• Lack of water resources.
• Municipal ineffectiveness.
• Sector is operating near current capacity.
• Under-investment.

Opportunities

• Education and skills development programmes.
• Infrastructure provision contracts.
• Private sector partnerships.
• Water research.

Threats

• Climate change and continuing drought.
• Continuing ineffectiveness of municipalities.
• Water pollution due to AMD and treatment plants exceeding their capacity.

Outlook

The South African water sector faces a number of serious challenges that, if not addressed, could lead to negative outcomes in future. Research undertaken by the WRC and DWS suggest that, as demand increases, South Africa could face a water supply deficit of 20% by 2025. The National Water Resource Strategy notes that it is therefore vital that the sector implement the infrastructure projects necessary to guarantee sufficient water resources and water service delivery in the medium-term. However, current investment levels stand well below the estimated required levels to guarantee the 2025 water supply. More problematically, around 47% of installed water infrastructure is in urgent need of refurbishment, but municipal ineffectiveness and a lack of skills entail that the steps taken to address local infrastructure and service delivery issues are often ineffective. As expressed by Finance Minister, Pravin Gordhan, South Africa\'s water challenge is based not in identifying the necessary strategy, nor in finding the money, but in “reviving the implementation capabilities of municipalities and utilities.”
