  1. Trends in the Performance Indicators of the WSS Utilities in theRussian Federation Dmitriy Khomchenko The Institute for Urban Economics Helsinki, Finland, 24-25 May 2007

  2. Objectives of Work Carried Out: • Collection and processing of technical and financial data on performance of the WSS utilities in the RF in 2000-2005 • Capacity building in the collection of technical and financial data by transferring the World Bank methodology (IBNET) Information Sources: • Sample of 48 WSS utilities in Perm and Krasnodar Krays of the RF • Official statistics (forms 1-water supply, 1-sanitation and 22-housing and community amenities (consolidated))

  3. Analysis of WSS Utilities’ Operational and Technical Indicators (1) • Out of total water sales, more than 60 percent is supplied by municipal utilities; about 25 percent, by state-owned utilities; and the rest, by private utilities and those with mixed ownership • Average water production and consumption in Russia reduced by almost one third to 402 l/day and 328 lcd, respectively, in 2000-2005 • In 2005,useful life of 35 percent of the water networks and 29 percent of the sanitation networks was over and they had to be replaced; in the capital cities of the Russian regions, 41 percent of the water networks had to be replaced.

  6. Analysis of WSS Utilities’ Operational and Technical Indicators (2) • Water losses in the water supply networks went up from 15.3 percent to 18.5 percent of the total water supply to the network in 2000-2005 • High accident rate • Prevalence of water meters increased (61 percent of connections)

  8. Analysis of Financial Indicators (1) • While in 2000 average household tariff in Russia accounted for more than 50 percentof the economically sound tariff (EST), in 2005 the household tariff went up to87 percentof the EST • Commercial-user-tariff-to-household-tariff-ratio went down from 3.9to1.7 • WSS utilities’ costs increased 3-fold from $0.16 to $0.44 per cub. m of water sold and from $0.11 to $0.32 per cub. m of water produced in 2000-2005

  10. Analysis of Financial Indicators (2) • Length of collection of payments for provided services in Russia as a whole went down from 151 days in 2000 to 89 days in 2005 • Collection rate in the Perm and Krasnodar Krays has steadily accounted for 97-98 percent of the bills issued over the past three years.

  11. Conclusions During the analyzed period both negative and positive developments were identified in the WSS in Russia, including: • Degradation of fixed assets, network deterioration, chronic lack of investment • Stabilization of utilities’ financial position, improved payment discipline
