About us
Our world is changing, growing and evolving. And as part of Scottish Water we’re using our infrastructure, knowledge and innovative ideas to encourage growth and sustainable development. Scottish Water has treatment works, reservoirs and tens of thousands of miles of water and waste water pipes. Some of these assets are either no longer used or simply underused. By harnessing the opportunities these assets provide, we are changing the horizon. From generating renewable energy from waste water to facilitating industry innovation to meet global water needs, we are helping our customers grow their business whilst contributing to a greener and more successful Scotland. Already we’ve helped customers enhance their environmental credentials by recycling food waste into green energy; delivered new water and waste water infrastructure to some of the biggest developments in Scotland; extended telecommunications by leasing our assets; and treated a variety of liquid wastes at our licensed treatment facilities. These are just some of the things we are doing to benefit our customers, our economy and our environment. If you would like to find out how we can help your business, contact us today.

To accelerate our investment in renewable energy, we have sold three low-carbon heat from waste water assets in Glasgow, Stirling, and Campbeltown to Noventa Energy Partners. 🌎 These innovative systems, the first of their kind in the UK, will benefit from Noventa’s advanced technology, further reducing emissions and boosting heat generation. This move allows us to unlock capital for future renewable energy initiatives while ensuring these assets continue to deliver sustainable, low-carbon heating for local communities. We remain deeply committed to working with Noventa and other partners to meet Scotland’s growing demand for low carbon heat solutions. #LetsDoNetZero Read more 👉 j1l.in/k1HDSL #RenewableEnergy #NetZero #HeatFromWasteWater #ClimateChange Donald MacBrayne Nigel Balfour Fiona Dall Paul Kerr Alex Plant Simon Parsons Danny Cowe David Ross Scottish Water Ancala

🚨 Bat detectives on patrol! 🦇🔍 Before installing solar panels at Scotland’s largest waste water pumping station, Scottish Water's Enviro team joined forces with JK Ecology to search for any hidden bat roosts in the rafters. Armed with infra-red cameras and listening devices, we're making sure our nocturnal friends are safe and sound while we work on this green energy and biodiversity project! 🌞 With solar panels, hedges, and wildflowers in the mix, we're powering up for net zero by 20240 while protecting nature every step of the way. 💚 Big thanks to Jane Chilton for capturing the action behind the scenes! 🎥👏 Were bats found?

We’ve just switched on a £1.4m solar scheme at Scottish Water's Newbridge Treatment Works near Edinburgh, featuring 2,016 solar panels. 🌞 This powerhouse will generate over 1GWh of green energy every year, saving 221 tonnes of carbon annually! 🌍 But we didn’t stop there! We’ve also rolled out the green carpet for nature: 🐦 6 bird boxes 🦇 2 bat boxes 🌻 Wildflower meadows 🦡 AND a special badger gate! Because who says solar power can’t be a little wild? 🌿🐾 Big thanks to all involved including Absolute Solar and Wind Ltd. Another step towards net zero by 2040 - and we’re bringing the wildlife with us! 💚 Read more 👉 j1l.in/jXsBH7 #SolarPower #Renewables #Biodiversity #ClimateChange Donald MacBrayne Ian Piggott Debbie Henderson Neil Beaumont Veolia NatureScot John Griffen

Well Done to Cameron Clark, Modern Apprentice, for making tremendous strides in our solar energy schemes! 🙌 Since joining last year, Cameron has helped deliver large-scale renewable energy projects, including the #BatteryPark Solar PV Scheme in Greenock, where he contributed to the installation of 568 solar panels, and managed site logistics and health & safety during Scotland’s tough winter. He later worked on the #Bonnybridge Solar PV Scheme, installing over 1,100 panels, further honing his skills in project management and site coordination. Great work, Cameron! Excited to see what’s next as you continue to grow with the team. Big thanks also to Murdo MacAulay and Pat Stakim for their excellent coaching. 💚 Read Cameron's Blog here 👉 j1l.in/EdswU1 #RenewableEnergy #ModernApprenticeship #SolarPower #ClimateChange Donald MacBrayne Ian Piggott Debbie Henderson Andrew Hamilton Sarah Lawson

🌞 The sun is shining on our latest solar PV project in Moffat! 324 solar panels are now powering Scottish Water pumps that deliver water to the town’s treatment works. The scheme will generate 0.14GWh of green energy annually, covering 12% of the site’s energy needs and cutting emissions by 17 tonnes each year. 🙌 A big thank you to Padmini Maheshwari, Murdo MacAulay and R&A Group LTD for their fantastic work in delivering this project, bringing us closer to our net-zero target by 2040. 🌍 Read more: j1l.in/7lsVCk #RenewableEnergy #NetZero #Sustainability #GreenFuture #SolarPower Donald MacBrayne Ian Piggott Debbie Henderson Neil Beaumont John Griffen
