Abstract

The aim of the article is to address resource-saving issues in water supply and sewage economy in Ukraine from the global perspective of water supply system development by focusing on the system approach to the analysis of water losses and overuse. The authors propose a structural and functional model of the analysis of water losses in water supply and sewage economy (WSSE) by developing the concept of "system model of water losses" that can be effectively used to solve various WSSE issues – environmental issues, tariff policy, priority choice, investment calculations, etc. The major questions to be answered here are: What is lost? What do we lose on? Who losses? It is particularly relevant to strategic planning and management in WSSE. Herewith, the key objectives of the WSSE strategic development in the contemporary conditions are discussed by summarizing the priority changes in WSSE in Ukraine in the dynamics of years.
