Deregulated Water in England and Scotland?

Deregulation of non-domestic water market in Scotland has happened creating a highly competitive suppliers’ market which can potentially save you thousands of pounds on water – irrespective of your annual usage.

Water in England however, is due to be deregulated in 2017, (Wales has opted out of deregulation) but before then, larger consumers using over 5,000 litres of water per annum can switch now. We can check your supply data to establish whether you can switch now – all we need is a copy of your latest bill.

While there are many differences between the energy and water markets, there are also many similarities as competition is introduced, especially in terms of customer expectations and reactions. 

What can we expect? In 2008 the water market was deregulated in Scotland, this resulted in:

• More than £35million in water efficiency savings
• A 26% increase in customer satisfaction
• More than £30million worth of discounts made available
• Customers saving 16 billion litres of water.

(Industry figures)

Using the Scotland figures we can expect savings, increased customer satisfaction, discounts and increased water efficiency.  

Don’t wait to review your water charges – let us do it now. Scottish consumers can already make savings and if you’re in England and fall under the 5000 litre qualification level don’t worry – we’ll log your details and contact you when competitive prices can be negotiated.
