Lemvig Vand

What Lemvig Vand does

Lemvig Vand A/S is a Danish municipal water and wastewater utility that supplies drinking water and manages wastewater for all properties in Lemvig Municipality, Denmark. The company operates as a regulated natural monopoly under municipal ownership, with no competitive alternatives within its service area. Its core operations rest on three waterworks (Engbjerg 1 built 1968, Engbjerg 2 built 2019, and Klosterhede) that extract and treat groundwater from protected aquifers at depths of 80-230 meters, producing approximately 2 million m³ of drinking water annually. Wastewater is collected and treated at two treatment plants in Lemvig and Harboøre, supported by an extensive pipeline network, pumping stations, water towers, and pressure boosting facilities.

The company's product portfolio centers on three integrated services: drinking water supply, wastewater collection and treatment, and a mandatory septic tank emptying program. Supporting capabilities include a 2025 digital water meter rollout enabling 24/7 consumption monitoring via a mobile app, a 2026 PFAS pyrolysis plant in Harboøre for specialized remediation, high-pressure jetting and pipe relining for sewer maintenance, and a customer self-service portal (Forsyningonline). Technology is predominantly traditional water treatment (aeration, filtration, backwashing for iron and manganese removal) combined with modern IoT metering infrastructure.

Lemvig Vand generates revenue through regulated tariffs published annually as takster (rate sheets), comprising fixed annual fees and variable consumption-based fees for both water supply and wastewater services. Commercial customers consuming more than 500 m³ annually may qualify for discounted wastewater drainage fees under the trappemodel step-pricing system. Additional revenue comes from the mandatory septic tank emptying service. Distribution occurs exclusively through the company's physical pipeline network, with customer touchpoints managed through the online portal, SMS notifications, e-boks digital mail, and a physical office. The company employs 11-50 people and is led by CEO Lars Nørgård Holmegaard, with a small management team structured around finance, projects, and technical operations.
