In April 2017, UK water de-regulation has been scheduled in the UK. But what does this mean for you as a consumer? Ultimately, it means that non-domestic users will be able to choose their water suppliers for the first time. Because the whole of the water market will be opened up to businesses in England, companies will have complete choice over their water supplier.
England Join The Open Water Market
England are therefore following in the footsteps of Scotland, who have had a de-regulated water market since 2008. You may be interested to know that, in fact, Scotland was the first country in the world to have a de-regulated water market at all.
What’s more, since then, Scotland has seen significant improvements in the water market, including efficiency and customer service. Therefore, having a de-regulated water market put in place in April 2017 looks set to be really exciting for England. In particular, for businesses in these countries.
