Una imagen detallada del proyecto de infraestructura hidráulica propuesto en Sant Bartomeu del Grau. La escena muestra el depósito de agua actual a una altura de 876 metros, en contraste con la elevación media de la ciudad, de alrededor de 906 metros. En primer plano, se muestra a los trabajadores inspeccionando el sitio y preparándose para la construcción de un nuevo depósito en la cima de la pintoresca Serra de l'Oratori a 902 metros. El paisaje circundante presenta una exuberante vegetación y colinas onduladas, con una red de tuberías de agua y sistemas de distribución visibles en el fondo. La imagen captura la esencia de un proyecto de gestión sostenible del agua, haciendo hincapié en la eficiencia, la distribución por gravedad y la optimización de los recursos hídricos para la comunidad local.

New Warehouse for an Efficient Supply

Sant Bartomeu del Grau City Council has given the green light to a strategic plan that seeks to revolutionize the municipality’s water supply system. The initiative includes the construction of a new deposit in the Serra de l’Oratori, which will replace the current one located in Les Escoles. With this move, a significant improvement in service efficiency and a reduction in energy costs associated with pumping is expected.

Optimization of the Water Network

The existing reservoir is currently 876 meters above sea level, while the new one will be 902 meters above sea level, allowing water to flow by gravity, eliminating the need for pumps. This improvement is an important step towards a more sustainable system and less dependent on external energy.

Analysis of Current Efficiency

The plan also includes a comprehensive diagnosis of the current network, which reveals an efficiency index of 80%, with practically non-existent leaks. These data highlight the robustness of the system, but also open the door to further improvements.

Centralization of Water Control

One of the most outstanding proposals is the centralization of the control of the water that is extracted from the new tank. Currently, the system is divided into three independent circuits, which makes effective management difficult. The integration of the data will make it possible to quickly identify any leaks and improve the efficiency of the network.

Expansion of the Distribution Network

The plan also contemplates the extension of the water network to the center of Albolquers, with a new pipe of 4.6 kilometers. In addition, the network will be segmented into five major areas, thus facilitating more effective management and more accurate monitoring of consumption.

Modernization of Materials

A significant renovation of the network will include the replacement of obsolete materials such as fiber cement in 12% of the total network, which corresponds to about 2.8 kilometers of pipe. This improvement is essential to guarantee the quality of the water supplied.

Implementation of New Technologies

The plan also foresees the installation of meters with radio reading technology, which will allow real-time management of water consumption, thus improving the ability to respond to possible incidents.

Budget and Planned Investments

The total budget for these actions amounts to more than 766,000 euros. The most significant items include the renewal of the distribution network (270,600 euros), the connection with Albolquers (263,500 euros) and the construction of the new depot (145,500 euros).

With this plan, Sant Bartomeu del Grau is positioned as an example to follow in sustainable water management, with a promising future in terms of efficiency and quality in supply.
