INFRA STORIES 8. Innovative Stormwater Management: Case Espoo
Manage episode 461546251 series 3639170
In this episode of Infra Stories, we dive into Espoo’s pioneering stormwater management project in collaboration with Ramboll Finland. Espoo leads the way as the first city in Finland to install the Uponor Vortex Stormwater Separation Chamber, a cutting-edge solution to address urban flood risks and reduce maintenance costs amid rapid development and climate change.
Installed at a high-flood-risk site in Espoo, the chamber uses centrifugal force to keep debris out of water systems, minimizing maintenance requirements. As rainfall intensity increases, this innovation positions Espoo as a leader in resilient urban planning.
Tune in to discover how this groundbreaking solution sets a new standard for sustainable stormwater infrastructure.
