Water efficiency for businesses
We each use roughly a third more water than we did 30 years ago. Our region is classed as water-stressed by the Government. We need to conserve the water we have now, so there's enough to go around in the future.
Embracing water efficiency is good for all of us. It helps save on water and energy bills and helps protect the local environment.
How we can help retail providers
We want to help you and your customers to use water efficiently and to save it where possible.Based on consumption levels, we'll work with you to select sites. This will also be based on where efficiency can be improved to reduce demand.
Our water efficiency team can then offer two programmes of work. This includes water efficiency audits and smarter business visits.
Water efficiency audits
We identify customers who we believe have the greatest potential to save water. We’ll share this information with you and work with you to confirm the customer details.
If a site has been flagged on our priority list we’ll audit the customer’s water efficiency for free. Where we can we’ll install efficiency devices. We may also recommend other water efficiency improvements.
Smarter business visit
We carry out a location-based smarter business programme. The programme will provide water efficiency advice and help fit water-saving devices. We'll also identify leaking toilets and fit-free urinal controls if practical.
Our goal is to work with everyone to reduce water wastage. We’ll keep you updated on any initiatives that we are deploying. Read more about our water efficiency plans.
