Market Operator Services Ltd (MOSL) is calling on Ofwat to give retailers in the new non-household water market a greater say in the upcoming 2019 Price Review (PR19) for the 2020-25 AMP7 investment programme.

In an Expert Focus article for Waterbriefing, Guy Ledger, client director for UK water utilities at Atkins discusses the upcoming changes in the water sector and the opportunities and challenges they present.

Ofwat has launched a new consultation on proposed changes to the reporting requirements for the Annual Performance Report s produced by the water companies for the 2016-17 reporting year.

A review commissioned by Ofwat to help it understand whether sludge and water resource cost and revenue data is robust and comparable with the advent of possible competition in upstream services has flagged up inconsistencies and variations in data provided by the 10 water and sewerage companies.

The Government has acknowledged the complexity of upstream reform, saying that setting charges for upstream markets will be a complex matter and it is therefore "undertaking careful work at present to think through upstream reform."
