Overcoming Challenges
A shortage of capacity in the UK’s wastewater treatment infrastructure is adversely affecting developers, with land being ‘frozen’, projects severely delayed and costs of planning contributions multiplying. In some areas of the UK, the issue is being magnified by ecological constraints and the need to demonstrate nutrient neutrality.
EPS has a solution.
We are working in partnership with licensed NAV operators, meaning that developments can gain the relevant OFWAT and Environment Agency approvals and treatment plants can be built and operated through a single package of service providers.
- One-stop-shop design & build service
- Extensive toolkit of technologies
- Best-for-task solution selection
- Unlocks land for development
- Addresses nutrient neutrality challenges
- Range of operational support options
Why EPS?
Our unrivalled track record in the design, build and operation of wastewater treatment plants makes us the expertise and adaptability to be the clear provider of choice in the developer and NAV markets. EPS partners with NAV operators to unlock development potential and build essential wastewater infrastructure for new communities.
We have been engaged by several leading house-building companies for the design and construction of several new wastewater treatment plants of 1,000 population equivalent and above for residential developments, in areas where there is insufficient wastewater capacity available within the local infrastructure.
This includes the provision of solutions for sites requiring additional treatment to achieve nutrient neutrality status. Through this, we are unlocking development potential and building essential wastewater infrastructure for new communities.
