creating an unrivalled customer experience

Every day, they supply 1,104 megalitres (that’s 1.1 billion litres) of water, drawn from reservoirs, rivers and groundwater sources, where it is collected and stored. It is treated at their works before being delivered by a network of pipes to homes and businesses across the North East and South East of England. In the North East of England, the Company also collects the wastewater from homes and businesses, delivering it to treatment facilities where it is treated before being returned to the environment as either clean water or sludge which can be recycled as fertiliser or used to generate energy. NWG has an ambition to be the leading provider of water and wastewater services. Working with customers and stakeholders, they have long-term plans in place to become the industry leaders in Asset Management, and in doing so, deliver an unrivalled customer experience.
