Overview

We are addressing the Big Water Issues - Water Neutrality & Stodmarsh Moratorium We are passionate about facilitating developments through finding solutions to complex engineering and environmental problems. Through innovation and technology, we ensure that brownfield, greenfield, and strategic sites achieve water neutrality. Our approach is based upon the following protocol: ✅ Step 1 - Innovative water supply design. ✅ Step 2 - Reduce water demand by 45% to 50% on new development. ✅ Step 3 - Offset water on existing developments which could be housing associations, schools, care homes, registered on our database theWaterBank. The aim of water neutrality is to minimise the impact on existing water resources, infrastructure, and the environment. Consequently, for every new development, water demand should first be minimised with any remaining water demand offset, so that the total demand on the public water supply (mains, treated, or abstracted) in a defined catchment region is the same after development as it was before the development was built. Thus for all new developments there would be a requirement to offset water use from existing residential/school/building premises within the same water resource zone to create the water resources required to service the new development. Through theWaterBank we are actively addressing this issue by matching developers with water offsetting opportunities in affected regions throughout the United Kingdom. What is a Water Neutral Development? A Water Neutral development will not add to the overall existing water demand of an area or catchment and will have zero impact on existing water abstraction requirements or water mains supply. We have led the delivery of the following Water Neutral sites; a site delivering a new resort with nearly 200 residential homes/apartments, spa, restaurant, and other amenities in Sussex, a nursery in Horsham including a new industrial estate that we are working on in Crawley.
