Sustainable Communities

Gone are the days when the many different parties involved in a property development project operated independently. Today's process is slicker, more environmentally aware and firmly rooted in collaboration.

In the UK, Veolia Water is building a strong client base of land and property developers. They require innovative, bespoke water and wastewater solutions to facilitate the development of new-style sustainable communities and housing. They also want to have confidence in knowing that the company they choose to use as a supplier understands the complexities of creating a truly sustainable development...which is exactly what we provide.

 

Sustainability and Reducing Carbon Footprint

Veolia Water engineer on-site

As well as providing a co-ordinated, multi-utility service offering to developers, we work with them to meet their sustainability targets, which can help to reduce their costs and their project's overall carbon footprint. Environmentally friendly-solutions might include:

  • Sourcing water locally
  • Harvesting rainwater
  • Treating wastewater locally
  • Reusing grey water
  • Converting biosolids into renewable energy

We work with sister companies within Veolia Environnement to offer full energy and waste sustainability solutions thereby providing a full range of utility services.

We're also working with a number of clients on major regeneration projects to implement water re-use technologies.

We can offer an Ofwat inset appointment to operate and manage the potable water and wastewater networks on behalf of the client.

Billing-Related Customer Services

As a regulated water company, we can take on full responsibility for all customer services, which can include many other related services in an integrated offering.

One Contact for all Utility Supply

Our one-stop-shop service means we can take ownership of the networks and provide a co-ordinated below-ground infrastructure package, incorporating project and programme management for all the main utility services.

This means that developers only have to liaise with one point of contact for all their activities relating to:

  • Water supply networks
  • Sewers
  • Electrical power lines
  • Gas mains
  • Telecommunication ducts
  • Any adoptions by the statutory undertaker and highway authorities
