Anglian Water Group's principal business is Anglian Water, the group's regulated water and sewerage company, which supplies water and water recycling services to around seven million customers in the East of England and Hartlepool.  

Anglian Water Services Ltd (Anglian Water) is the largest water and water recycling company in England and Wales by geographic area. From the Broads of Norfolk to the hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds, fast-growing cities to the dramatic Suffolk coastlines, our region is highly diverse. We employ around 6,000 people and many more through our alliances.  

Underpinned by our Purpose, to bring social and environmental prosperity to the region we serve, our position as a supplier of an essential public service presents us with both the opportunity and the responsibility to do more for our region. Water underpins economies and businesses; it impacts the quality of green and blue spaces, and it is a key enabler for growth, particularly in our fast-growing region.  

This is why our investment programme has increased more than three-fold, from less than £3 billion in AMP1 (the first five-year planning period after the water industry was privatised in 1989) to over £10 billion for AMP8 (2025-2030). Since 2020, we’ve invested £963 million in our capital programme, our highest investment yet, bringing us to £2.7 billion for the AMP to date. 

In 2024/25, we saw an increase in our Regulatory Capital Value (RCV) and, our robust financial position continues to be recognised by Ofwat in its annual financial resilience report.  

In November 2024, we began procuring a Programme Delivery Partner to help deliver our AMP8 business plan, worth over £11 billion and our largest ever capital programme. While we’ve referred elements of the plan to the CMA for review, we remain committed to our ambitious goals. Over £9 billion is allocated to increasing capacity across water and recycling assets, supporting growth, reducing flooding, and advancing our zero‑escapes strategy. Around £4 billion will go towards environmental improvements, including nature‑based solutions and partnerships to enhance ecological health. We’re also progressing key infrastructure, such as our strategic pipeline and two new reservoirs, to secure long-term water resilience for our region.
