How Renca is doing it

80,000 trees irrigated
Nearly 2 million people with access to nature

In 2027, Renca will introduce a circular economy solution to tackle Chile’s water crisis by using treated industrial wastewater in Cerros de Renca Metropolitan Park. This system will sustainably irrigate over 80,000 trees and prevent forest fires without using any drinking water, democratising access to nature for nearly 2 million people.
