Água de Ivoti

What Água de Ivoti does

Água de Ivoti (legal name: Autarquia Água de Ivoti) is a municipal autarquia — a government-owned public utility — that provides potable water supply and sewage collection and treatment services to approximately 22,000 residents of the municipality of Ivoti in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The utility operates 29 water capture points, 9 sewage treatment stations, and approximately 28 kilometers of collector network, with average monthly treated sewage volume of 5,200 m³. Its core technology stack consists of conventional water and sewage infrastructure (pipe networks, treatment stations, mechanical hidrômetros) supplemented by an ongoing modernization program replacing legacy asbestos cement piping with HDPE (PEAD) polyethylene networks, and a GSAN-based online billing portal.

The business operates under a regulated municipal monopoly model overseen by AGESAN-RS (Agência Reguladora Intermunicipal de Saneamento do Rio Grande do Sul), with IPCA-indexed annual tariff adjustments (4.39% effective July 2026 per Resolution CSR Nº 08/2026). Revenue is generated through tiered usage-based water tariffs across seven customer categories (Residential A Social, Residential B, Commercial A, Commercial B, Public, Industrial, Obras), a newly introduced sewage tariff under the Sanea Ivoti program launched July 2026, one-time connection/disconnection/reconnection fees, and debt installment plans. Distribution occurs via owned pipe infrastructure, a headquarters customer service point, WhatsApp/telephone support, and online bill payment.

The utility has 11–50 employees, is governed by a Director-General (Adriano Graeff) with oversight from a Deliberative Council chaired by Cristiano Gestrich, and is subject to Brazilian federal sanitation law (Marco Legal do Saneamento) targeting 90% universalization of water and sewage services by 2033. No external funding, M&A activity, or VC/PE ownership is indicated; the entity is wholly owned by the municipal government of Ivoti.
