Our business plan for 2020 to 2025

As most people cannot choose their water supplier, one of Ofwat’s duties is to set the price, investment and service package that customers receive. They do this every five years and must balance the interests of customers with ensuring that companies can pay for and deliver the services they need to. 

Our business plan for 2020 to 2025 sets out the commitments we have made to deliver a range of improvements over the five-year period, enhance the environment and increase the resilience of our service for the future. We will do this through five pledges.

Our Climate Adaptation Report

As a water company, we're acutely aware of how the weather and climate affect our business so it's vital we plan ahead to make sure we're well prepared for any change. The Climate Change Adaptation Report is our assessment of how climate change will affect us, as a business, and the risks we need to take into account and mitigate for.

Company Monitoring Framework (CMF)

The CMF was introduced by Ofwat, the economic regulator for the water sector, in 2015. The framework describes how Ofwat will oversee that we, and other water and wastewater companies, are providing our customers and other stakeholders with information they can have confidence in.
