Financing for Water Treatment Facility Expansion
Customer Perspective
 Colorado City needed to expand its water treatment
facilities. The city sought an alternative to the delays
and costs associated with acquiring funding from the
state revolving fund. They needed a water treatment
solution provider who could provide financing for thirdparty engineering, construction, and equipment costs.
Siemens Solution
 A pre-approval for tax-exempt financing from SFS
increased planning efficiency
 SFS financed $1.8 million for Siemens Water
Technologies Memcor® equipment, third-party
engineering, and construction costs
 SFS financing helped the city avoid delays, saved
taxpayer dollars, and accelerated the project.
Results
Colorado City, Colorado
“The built-in financing from Siemens
saved taxpayer dollars and expedited
the expansion of our drinking water
treatment facilities needed to serve our
growing population.”

Three Questions for your Utility Director
 What options are we evaluating to reduce energy use in the next 5
years?
 What different options have we considered for achieving nutrient
targets?
 What considerations were given to the possibility of stricter standards
and higher energy costs in the future?
