Knowle 

In July 2009, Albion Water pioneered an innovative services solution at Knowle Village near Fareham in Hampshire. Working in partnership with the developer Berkeley Homes, water industry regulators and local residents, Albion Water secured an inset appointment to provide sewerage services to the village which not only set prices below that of the local monopoly provider, but maximised the use of existing assets, minimised the carbon footprint and enhanced the site’s bio-diversity.

Albion Water has embarked on a research and investment programme within this community-based solution to improve the sewerage infrastructure and reliability for Knowle’s domestic and commercial customers.
