Business plan 2015-2020
After two years of consultation with our customers and stakeholders, the South West Water Business Plan details the activities and investments that we will undertake during the 2015-20 period.
The plan is designed to keep our customers’ bills affordable and deliver value for money services while also:
- enabling us to meet or exceed the high quality standards set by our regulators
- safeguarding our existing investments (e.g. networks, treatment works, operational assets and systems)
- minimising the impact of our activities on the environment
- safeguarding fair returns for investors with additional incentives for outperformance shared with customers
- ensuring we can meet future challenges such as climate change, population growth and new legislation.

March 2014 update
In December 2013 we published our business plan to 2020 following the largest ever consultation with customers.
In March 2014, we made some changes to the plan following further feedback from customers and discussions with Ofwat, the water industry regulator. This document summarises our proposed changes to that plan, which could see bills falling by 13% below inflation by 2020.
