The U.S. municipal water and wastewater sector stands at a pivotal moment as utilities navigate a generational investment cycle. This cycle is shaped by changing compliance requirements, demographic shifts, and aging infrastructure. Against this backdrop, market participants face a complex landscape of challenges, including volatile input costs, delays in federal funding, and intensifying regulatory expectations—all while striving to maintain critical service delivery.

This 2025–2035 forecast for capital expenditures (CAPEX) focuses on the core infrastructure components of U.S. water and wastewater systems: treatment, pumping, lift stations, and storage assets. The analysis is based on a decade of market intelligence, utility capital budgets, policy tracking, and cost data from all 50 states.

Bluefield’s methodology considers key factors shaping utility investments, such as delays in infrastructure funding, cost volatility stemming from tariffs and labor shortages, evolving regulations regarding per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and resilience, changing demographics, and utilities’ ability to deliver capital programs effectively.

Through this lens, this Insight Report offers a grounded, data-driven perspective on a market transitioning from reactive fixes to strategic renewal and optimization. It highlights where investments will likely flow, what is driving these changes, and which stakeholders are positioned to capitalize on opportunities in the coming decade.
