  • Cracking the cost and carbon challenge: Secure supplies and lower utility bills | future net zero podcast

    Cracking the cost and carbon challenge: Secure supplies and lower utility bills | future net zero podcast
    Apr 29 2026
    The challenge to keep control on rising costs are a feature in 2026, once again, for businesses and the public sector. There are, however, sources of solutions in reach that can boost business sustainability, protect revenue and reduce risk. Get the latest insights and smarter actions to take with water and trade effluent by joining Future Net Zero and Cherie Guthrie, a Water Plus senior Key Account Manager with 13 years’ experience in business water - in this free 2026 podcast. Cherie outlines opportunities to explore, along with the real-world strategies businesses can take to help the bottom line and keep running costs down. Those taking-up smarter water strategies are seeing results, reducing utility costs and building operational resilience: 42.5% water saving, on average daily use, at a site after a proactive water management project with Water Plus that saw small efficiency devices installed. The saving was tracked in 2025 by a data logger installed on a water meter in a water audit and efficiency project involving 17 locations. A national operation with a data logger fitted to a water meter at a site was alerted to a rise of 400 litres per hour, preventing more than £12,000 in additional annual wholesaler charges. A follow-up visit arranged in February 2026 located an underground pipe leak, which was replaced and had lost 67,200 litres (67.2m3) in just 7 days. A saving of more than £350,000 delivered for another multi-site - after the proactive approach and close customer support of an Account Manager and Key Account Manager at Water Plus, who challenged wholesaler charges at a location. The cost reduction in 2025 was due to changes in site use. Another business secured a water-saving across three of its sites that could have added more than £9,400 in extra wholesaler charges on its bill. Two leaks on underground pipework and a wall tap leak were located and repaired in autumn 2025, through the Advanced Services team at Water Plus. 2026 is a key year to plan and set in motion approaches to limit additional cost challenges from wholesaler price increases for water from April 2026. And saving water can help reduce future water scarcity risks, while reducing carbon emissions - as well as have in-year impacts to give a boost to budgets.
