SHAPING THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABLE URBAN DRAINAGE INFRASTRUCTURE
Welcome to Stormwater Europe 2026, where stormwater experts and environmental professionals will come together to explore innovative solutions and best practices in urban drainage and stormwater management.
The increasing impacts of climate change, urban development, and ageing infrastructure continue to intensify challenges in stormwater management. The event will showcase integrated models, green infrastructure, advanced AI applications, and big data tools focused on improving real-time monitoring, flood resilience, and pollution control.
Join us to share insights, explore emerging technologies, and contribute to shaping the future of stormwater management.
key topics for
Long-term capital planning and funding strategies for stormwater programmes
Explore funding approaches such as cost-sharing, incentives, grants, and public-private partnerships to strengthen project delivery and asset management.
Advanced treatment systems for emerging contaminants and resource recovery
Apply treatment solutions for PFAS, nutrients, and microplastics to enhance urban runoff quality and create opportunities for water reuse and resource recovery.
Strategies for permitting, compliance, and industrial run-off management
Understand permitting requirements, evolving regulations, and best practices for managing industrial runoff through effective monitoring and source control.
SuDS and green infrastructure to strengthen flood risk resilience
Retrofit streetscapes with bioswales, rain gardens, green roofs, and permeable paving to manage runoff, reduce flooding, and minimise sewer overflows.
Smart stormwater technologies and advanced modelling for future management
Leverage real-time monitoring, IoT sensors, AI forecasting, analytics, and digital twins to optimise stormwater system efficiency, performance, and resilience.
Case studies on developing climate-resilient urban drainage infrastructure
Learn from European cities applying nature-based solutions, retrofit methods, and community-led approaches to create climate-resilient stormwater systems.
