Environmental Consultancy
— UK Water Sector

AMP8 includes the largest environmental compliance programme in the water sector's history. WINEP obligations, storm overflow reduction, abstraction reform and net zero commitments are all driving sustained demand for specialist environmental consultancy.

2030Programme End

The Water Industry National Environment Programme (WINEP) sets statutory environmental improvement obligations for every UK water company — covering wastewater quality, abstraction reduction, flow to good ecological status and biodiversity net gain. On top of WINEP, storm overflow investment, net zero reporting requirements and habitat creation obligations are all creating sustained procurement demand for environmental consultancies. EIA, ecological surveys, water framework directive compliance, HABITATS regulations assessment and environmental management systems are all in scope.
