What pwik olkusz does

PWiK Olkusz (full legal name: Przedsiębiorstwo Wodociągów i Kanalizacji Sp. z o.o. z siedzibą w Olkuszu) is a municipal water and wastewater utility serving the residents and businesses of four gminas in the Olkusz region of Małopolskie Voivodeship, Poland: Olkusz, Bukowno, Bolesław, and Klucze. Following the planned liquidation of ZGH Bolesław S.A. mining operations, the company completed a generational transition in January 2017 from mine-dewatering water sources to a new supply system drawing from Triassic and Jurassic deep wells, with water treatment stations and a regional wastewater treatment plant forming the physical backbone of operations.

The company's commercial offering is built on two regulated core services — drinking water supply and sewage collection/treatment — billed through monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly metered tariffs under Polish regulatory oversight. Customer interaction is handled through a physical service office, an e-BOK electronic customer portal (SHA-256 secured), an emergency hotline (994), an SMS notification layer via the SISMS platform, and the BLISKO mobile application for citizen alerts. Side offerings include an accredited water-and-wastewater testing laboratory, school water-fountain installations, and recurring educational programs (Uniwersytet Profesora Wodniczka, ekoTEATR competition) aimed at building community water-conservation awareness.

Ownership sits with the four municipal gminas, which together received the ekoLIDER 25-lecia award in 2018 for the joint regional water-supply transformation. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; capital projects are partially funded through EU grants under RPO Małopolskie 2014-2020 and successor programs. The management team is led by Prezes Zarządu Alfred Szylko and Wiceprezes Grzegorz Cebo, with Anna Chwast chairing the Supervisory Board. The company is actively investing in infrastructure modernization (Klucze sewer build-out, Bukowno–Bolesław agglomeration upgrade), cyber resilience (CYBERBEZPIECZNE WODOCIĄGI, 2026), and academic partnerships (Akademia WSB, 2026).
