Water Infrastructure Expansion Affinity Water is actively pursuing large-scale projects such as the White Horse Reservoir solution in collaboration with Thames Water and Southern Water, presenting an opportunity to offer integrated water storage optimization, leakage analytics, and reservoir asset management solutions.

Leak Detection & DAS Partnerships with Lightsonic and Openreach to deploy distributed acoustic sensing across hundreds of kilometers of pipelines indicate a strong need for advanced real‑time leak detection, sensor networks, and data-driven outage prevention services.

River &Environmental Programs Ongoing river restoration initiatives and community-focused programs (e.g., FiveRivers project) create openings for environmental monitoring tech, data platforms for watershed management, and sustainability reporting tools to support regulatory and public engagement requirements.

Customer Experience & Education Public engagement campaigns such as The Great Water Hunt and collaborations on water-saving workshops suggest opportunities for consumer digital platforms, gamified conservation apps, and customer education portals that drive demand management and usage analytics.

AMP8 & Regulatory-readiness Early adoption of EnigmaREACH under the AMP8 framework signals appetite for compliance, regulatory reporting, and performance analytics solutions that help demonstrate efficiency, resilience, and environmental stewardship to Ofwat and stakeholders.
