One-Pager: Environmental Incentive Payments

Encouraging water smart homes through financial incentives: Aligning environmental incentive payments to drive sustainable water use in new developments

Every English water company offers incentive payments to help developers implement solutions that save water and manage excess surface water. These incentives can support: Rainwater harvesting, Water reuse, Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and Water neutrality.

EWSC has responded to developer feedback by mapping existing incentives, developing guidance to support standardisation across water companies, and creating tools to improve uptake. Download the Environmental Incentive Payments One-Pager below:
