Amazon Web Services (AWS) has broken ground on a water replenishment project in Katrineholm, Sweden as a part of a collaboration between AWS, the municipality of Katrineholm, and the regional water utility company, Sörmlands Vatten.
AWS invested $4 million into the project, which aims to facilitate critical stormwater infrastructure upgrades, the creation of a new wetland, and a community recreational area in Stora Djulö.
"This groundbreaking represents more than just a water management solution - it's about creating lasting environmental benefits for the Katrineholm community," said Clare Biddle, senior manager, energy and water for AWS in Europe, Middle East, and Africa. "By supporting natural infrastructure that helps manage stormwater while creating new habitats, we're demonstrating our commitment to being a good neighbor and responsible water steward."
“Breaking ground at Djulö Wetland marks the start of a long-term investment in nature and climate resilience,” said Maja Larsson, project manager at the municipality of Katrineholm. “This has been made possible through a successful collaboration with Amazon - a partnership turning sustainability goals into real impact.”
