“DRIZZLE - Centre for Stormwater Management” is one of Vinnova funded competence centers for research in areas of importance for Sweden.
The total funding for DRIZZLE amounts to approximately SEK 223 million over ten years (2017–2027), with Vinnova contributing a total of SEK 75 million. The remaining funding is provided by participating companies, municipalities, and Luleå University of Technology.
Within DRIZZLE, excellent, needs-driven research is conducted that creates knowledge to support the development of research-based, adapted, sustainable stormwater management solutions. DRIZZLE’s vision is to develop pioneering, research-based stormwater management solutions, to minimize pollution loads on receiving waters; to minimize the risk for flooding in urban areas; and to capture the opportunities that stormwater runoff can offer.
About our reseach
Research within stormwater quality
Urban areas contain numerous diffuse pollutants sources, which are released during wet weather.
Research within stormwater quantity
DRIZZLE researchers are leading the way nationally and internationally as we identify, evaluate and implement a range of approaches to facilitate a shift in how we view and manage stormwater flows.
Research on Integrated Stormwater Solutions
Integrated management of stormwater with multi-functional blue/green infrastructure, which targets the environmental and technical aspects (water quality and quantity/flooding), as well as socio-econ
