Opportunity Context

Lots

Lot Description: Wessex Water forecast a supply demand balance deficit from 2035 due to proposed abstraction licence reductions. This deficit coupled with challenging regulatory targets on demand and leakage reduction provide clear drivers for investment and innovation in our demand reduction strategy. Demand reduction is integral to achieving three of our strategic outcomes; safe and reliable water, sustainable abstraction, and net zero carbon. Our preferred demand reduction strategy comprises three key areas: smart metering, customer engagement & water efficiency, and leakage reduction. Smart metering is at the heart of our strategy and the key to unlocking a step change in outcomes in the other two areas. We believe an ambitious smart metering programme is the innovation required to deliver targets and reduce requirements for future supply side schemes. Our preferred plan includes the rollout of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) smart meters to 40% of properties in our region (including non-households) by 2030 and 95% by 2035 which will provide detailed usage data allowing us to better target both leakage reduction and customer engagement efforts.
