Asociación Española de Empresas Gestoras de Agua Urbana

Mission & Goals

DAQUAS is the new association created after merging AEAS (which was founded in 1973) with AGA. DAQUAS is the leading association of water service providers and enterprises responsible for the operation, maintenance, exploitation and management of urban water services, encompassing more than three quarters of the Spanish population. We contribute to cooperation, transference and dissemination of practical knowledge and experience, know-how and information of the water sector in Spain. We have Technical Committees and Working Groups that provide support, develop studies, reports and proposals on different areas of urban water cycle: abstraction and water treatment engineering; quality and water treatment; distribution networks; urban drainage and sewerage; wastewater treatment; management and users’ relations; economics and statistics; RDI; CSR. DAQUAS works in close cooperation with EurEau and other international associations such as IWA, OECD and ISO.
