PREPARED - Enabling Change
• Project Title: Adaptation of water supply and sanitation systems to
cope with climate change
• Budget: 10.7 mill EUR;
• EU Support: 7 mill EUR (FP7)
• Project duration: 4 years
• Project start: 1. February 2010

PREPARED - Enabling Change
• European commission FP7 Programme
• The PREPARED project will deal with early warning systems, as well
as short- and long-term response strategies for urban areas. The
technological and managerial response opportunities in the project
are intended to be developed in the context of environmental, social
and economic perspectives.

Motivation and boundary conditions
Aarhus, Denmark
AIM:
To forecast the water
quality in the harbour
Optimize the
capacity of the
drainage system and
the WWTP’s
River through the city
Recipient for urban water
Water level affects CSO
Increased flooding frequency
Outflow depended on the sea level
Increased rural run-off due climate changes
Good water quality
- Harbour bath
- Housing on the harbour
Water level in harbour
Defines river gradient
Rising sea levels?
Info:
75 combined sewer
overflows (CSO)
58 storm water drains
50% of the flow in the
river is from WWTPs

Cost of bathing water in Lake Brabrand and Aarhus Harbour
• Passive conventional solution: 590 mio. kr.
− Cost of building retention basins
− Fixed solution
• Intelligent control solution: 353 mio. kr.
− Basins, control structures and implementation of automated
control strategies
− Flexible solution – adaptive for future climate
