Welsh Water is expecting savings of more than £440.000 a year following the implementation of new optimisation techniques at two of its water treatment works.
It signed a three-year contract with Veolia last year. which is assisting the water company with identifying. delivering and maintaining cost savings. with a focus on energy. chemical and water efficiencies at the Broomy Hill and Bolton Hill sites in Hereford and Haverfordwest respectively.
