WELL Labs signs an MoU with the Bangalore Water Supply And Sewerage Board (BWSSB)
19 August 2025
This partnership will address water and wastewater management in Bengaluru from 2025-2027.
To address Bengaluru’s increasing demand for water, the BWSSB is assessing the reuse of treated wastewater for domestic, commercial, and lake recharge purposes in the city. WELL Labs has been appointed as an advisory institute in this regard. We will analyse existing wastewater infrastructure to highlight gaps and key challenges, and assist the BWSSB in designing, piloting and monitoring innovative wastewater management solutions. We will also work with the BWSSB to co-create a wastewater vision for the city.
