The Mayor of Las Rozas, José de la Uz, accompanied by the Councilor for Environment and City Services, Jaime Santamarta, and the Councilor for the South District, Isabel Durán, visited the works being carried out on Kálamos Street, one of the key points of the new groundwater utilization system that will allow the municipality to save more than 15,900 m³ of drinking water per year, equivalent to more than six Olympic swimming pools. This measure will result in an estimated saving of 50,000 euros annually on the water bill and a significant advancement in environmental sustainability.

«This project is another step in our commitment to sustainability and efficient resource management. We leverage existing infrastructure, incorporate cutting-edge technology, and reduce the environmental impact of drinking water consumption,» said De la Uz.

The City Council has authorizations from the Tagus Hydrographic Confederation to start up three disused wells: Dehesa de Navalcarbón (6,970 m³/year), Kálamos Street (6,540 m³/year), and Espalmador Street (2,400 m³/year). For their activation, comprehensive renovation works of the electromechanical infrastructure are being carried out, with an investment of 79,645 euros.

Smart Loading

These actions include the installation of new stainless steel submersible pumps, electronic control systems with frequency converters, and tanks of up to 100,000 liters. In addition, smart loading bays are being implemented for tanker trucks, with access control through magnetic card and volumetric measurement in the cloud, ensuring consumption traceability and preventing misuse.

This system, inspired by fuel pump technology, allows for remote monitoring, automatic report generation, and direct communication with the Tagus Hydrographic Confederation, thereby complying with current regulations.

In addition to the drilling works, this technological solution is being replicated in the water loading points for street cleaning located on Castillo de Coca, Rosa de Lima, and Severo Ochoa streets, thus improving water resource efficiency throughout the municipality.
