Sweden's largest source of water withdrawals is surface water. In 2020, the Nordic country abstracted nearly 1.8 billion m³ of surface water – roughly 58 percent of total water withdrawals. This was followed by sea water, which accounted for an additional 547 million m³ of water withdrawals in the country. That year, the volume of water withdrawals in Sweden amounted to nearly 3.1 billion m³.
