Enel applies an integrated approach for optimal management
of use of water resources and their protection
Downstream of internal recoveries and reuses, wastewater discharged from the plants
is returned to the surface water body. Discharge always takes place downstream of a
treatment process that removes any pollutants present to a level where they will not
have a negative impact on the receiving water body, in compliance with the limits
provided for under national regulations and by operating permits
