That includes watering the garden or filling a swimming pool in hot weather. \u201cWe are looking at how we can make comfort use more expensive,\u201d a company spokesperson told De Telegraaf. Last week, Vitens warned that the Netherlands\u2019 drinking water infrastructure was reaching the limits of its capacity.<\/p>\n<p>The company had to put 45 companies on a waiting list for a water connection last year because it could not supply enough water to include them. The company warned that it may soon have to do the same for newly built homes in several areas.<\/p>\n<p>Vitens does not yet know how much more it will charge for \u201ccomfort use\u201d of water. The topic is on the agenda for the company\u2019s shareholders meeting next week. The company hopes that making unnecessary water use more expensive will encourage consumers to be more sparing with this limited resource.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/nltimes.nl\/2024\/04\/09\/largest-dutch-water-company-wants-charge-comfort-use\">NL Times<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-506\/\">Largest Dutch water company wants to charge more for &#8220;comfort use&#8221;<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,2746,14095,4502],"class_list":["post-129544","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-netherlands","tag-vitens","tag-water-use"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129544","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129544"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129544\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129544"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129544"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129544"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
