Innovation
At Thames Water, we have a rich history of innovation. Today, innovation is still firmly at the heart of everything that Thames Water does.
We have a team of world-class scientists, engineers, and innovation specialists. They have access to cutting-edge technology and facilities. This includes innovation pilot halls. These are available at Kempton Water Treatment Works and Reading Sewage Treatment Works.
Our team is dedicated to ensuring life's essential service is effectively delivered.
We're turning our business performance around and tackling challenges faced by our sector. To support this we're evolving our innovation model. The new model will embed capability that delivers systematic change throughout the organisation.

Improved innovation has had a positive impact on our customers and the environment. It has also helped to deliver public value, and improved resilience and sustainability.
Our innovation priorities are linked to our strategic ambitions and our corporate strategy. Find out more about our plans in vision 2050 research and water innovation strategy.
