At PR24 final determination, Anglian Water was allocated £167m to support smart metering, leakage reduction, and other water efficiency activities across the 2025-2030 period. Companies may choose where to spend allocated money within their regions, such as by targeting specific locations or spreading it evenly across their area.

Additionally, Ofwat leads a £100m Water Efficiency Fund. A national campaign will launch later this year.  Winners of the first innovation competition will be confirmed in June 2026, and the money will be to the benefit of all consumers.
