Sustainable wastewater treatment solutions

A significant challenge to the water sector is how to embed sustainability in the heart of its operations in an economically viable way that protects customers and the wider environment for generations to come.

Ofwat have embraced this challenge by encouraging new water companies that are better at providing certain activities to compete with the incumbents.

None of this competition should jeopardise the quality or resilience of the service. Rather, it should meet even higher standards.

Here at Severn Trent Connect, we believe we are best placed to provide a resilient and environmentally beneficial service to our customers by sustainably managing surface water run-off using blue-green infrastructure that adds to the overall biodiversity of new developments.

We also embrace chemical-free wastewater treatment technologies and seek to explore innovative ways of reducing potable water demand through non-potable water networks.
