Welcome to the Water Efficiency Technology Portal







Trial Opportunities - head to this page to understand which technologies are currently looking to implement their device/process with non-household customers.

Technologies - this is the current library of devices that address water efficiency or consumption reduction

  • Retrofit  Technologies refer to the installation or integration of water-saving devices, fixtures, or system
  • Industrial Technologies - provides bespoke case studies of technologies or processes that are industry specific and might be applicable for your customers.


What doesn't the portal do?

  • It is not a procurement portal (like Achilles)
  • While all technologies have been assessed independently by Isle Utilities (see due diligence levels below), their inclusion is not a recommendation for use (see disclaimer)




Disclaimer

  • All technologies/solutions have been independently selected as they might have the potential to meet the water efficiency needs of water retail customers in England and Wales. 
  • The technologies have been independently assessed, however inclusion in this Portal is not a recommendation. All Retailers will have to complete their own due diligence for use of technologies.
  • It is the retailers responsibility to contact the technology/solution provider directly to verify the information provided in this portal and it should be noted that the costs are indicative.
  • There is no obligation to contact, trial or implement the technology/solutions.
