Spilling over: Rising industrial activity is elevating revenue for commercial wastewater services

Concerns regarding public sanitation have grown over the past decade, while the UK population has continued to expand, elevating pressure on companies in the Sewerage industry. There's a growing number of UK households, because of a rising population and housebuilding activity, which is aiding the need for industry services. Rising industrial production activity and a steady expansion in the number of businesses is raising revenue for commercial wastewater drainage services. Revenue expanded in 2020-21, despite the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. The volume of household wastewater rose because people spent more time at home amid repeated lockdowns, enhancing demand for drainage services. Sewerage revenue is forecast to swell at a compound annual rate of 0.9% to £10.9 billion over the five years through 2023-24, including a forecast revenue growth of 1.6% in 2023-24.

Companies in this industry operate sewerage systems for the collection, treatment and disposal of sewage, including household and industrial wastewater and rainwater runoff. The industry is responsible for maintaining sanitation services for customers and meeting statutory obligations with respect to system overflows and wastewater quality through the stages of treatment.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
