Consortium calls for a 'water neutral' PR19

摘要

Water companies must make sure they do not increase in the amount of water abstracted from rivers and groundwater, despite increases in population and climate change, a consortium of environmental and water efficiency groups has insisted. Blueprint for Water - a coalition of environmental, water efficiency, fisheries and angling organisations - has published a report outlining its priorities for the upcoming price review PR19. In the publication, the group said it wants to see a "water neutral" PR19, in which companies "significantly scale up" their demand management programmes to increase resilience.
