Scottish Water

The Glasgow Business Award for Sustainable Development

We look after Scotland’s most precious natural resource – Scottish Water is trusted to care for the water on which Scotland depends.

Publicly owned, we deliver essential water and waste water services to over 2.6 million homes and more than 160,000 business premises. We are responsible for over 2,000 water and waste water treatment works and an underground pipe network more than 60,000 miles long. 

We are delivering a sector-leading level of customer service to customers and communities across Scotland. 

We place great focus on providing value for money and creating wider social, environmental, and economic benefits through our investment to support a flourishing Scotland now and in the future. For every £1 Scottish Water invests, £3 of value is created - with nearly 90% of our direct supply chain spending with companies operating in Scotland.

We continue our work to reduce our effect on the environment towards net zero – we are becoming more energy efficient, embracing low carbon construction and new technologies to adapt to climate change, and continue to invest in renewable power technologies at as many of our sites as possible.
