Changing utilities: fresh water
Article Abstract:
There is little scope for UK businesses wishing to change their water supplier, although privatization of the ten water and sewage companies in England and Wales offers some degree of choice. There are few ways to cut water costs by renegotiating contracts with water suppliers but companies can save money by undertaking a water audit of their premises.
