Abstraction
Potable mains water from the local water company is often not needed or desirable for a range of business processes, due mainly to its high cost. Canal, dock and river water provides a competitively priced sustainable long-term solution for your business requirements.
We are currently providing access to raw water for a range of businesses along the length of its canal, dock and river networks, including:
Paper Manufacturing
Power Generation
Chemical Manufacturing
Edible Oil Refining
Emergency Fire Protection
Air Conditioning for Commercial Buildings
Abstraction sites
Canal, dock and river water provides a cost-effective sustainable alternative to the mains water supply. Due to the source being local, it also satisfies a business’s Corporate Social Responsibility obligations and has a lower carbon footprint.
Cooling and Heating
Water from canals and docks has been well established as a means of cooling for centuries. This has traditionally been in areas of manufacturing and power generation.
With an increasing focus on the need for better energy solutions for buildings, this water is increasingly seen as a cost-effective sustainable solution that can reduce the carbon footprint for a range of business applications.
Most buildings can benefit from canal or river water cooling, however those buildings with a large cooling requirement are the most suitable.
Other types of buildings which could benefit include:
Paper Manufacturing
Power Generation
Chemical Manufacturing
Edible Oil Refining
Emergency Fire Protection
Air Conditioning for Commercial Buildings

Surface Water Discharge sites
Canal, dock and river water provides a cost-effective sustainable alternative to the mains water supply.
Discharging into our waterways also reduces the carbon footprint of your business compared to the public sewerage network, where surface water is often mixed with foul effluent and must be treated prior to discharge.
We also work with developers to formulate drainage solutions that avoid the need to discharge into the public sewerage network and so mitigate the high reinforcement costs of satisfying Sustainable Drainage Scheme (SuDS) requirements.
