Anglian Water is a world leader in reducing carbon emissions.
Anglian Water is a world leader in reducing carbon emissions. As an early starter, the big UK water utility embarked on its carbon zero journey in 2006 and is now on track to generate 45 percent of energy from its own renewable resources by 2025 and become a full net zero carbon business by 2030.
In this Spotify podcast Jon Reed and Hannah Edmond from the Water New Zealand climate change group talk to Anglian Water’s head of carbon neutrality, David Riley about the water utility’s bold approach to tackling climate change and the carbon reduction lens covering all aspects of its operation.

We’re using ‘Innovation Sprints’ to help solve business challenges and accelerate innovative ideas.
We’re using ‘Innovation Sprints’ to help solve business challenges and accelerate innovative ideas. The sprints help us to quickly come up with the right solutions in a short time.
Working together, our Operational and Environment, Health and Safety group recently took this Agile approach to help keep our people safe. They organised a sprint focused on finding an engineering solution to manage the critical risk of our people being struck by mobile plant such as excavators, rollers, cranes, etc.
In just six weeks the team scanned the globe and came up with a solution which complements our Safe Work System for People Interface Zones – installing AI cameras on plant blind spots to clearly identify and locate people who inadvertently enter into a blind spot on an operational piece of plant so the operator can take appropriate action to prevent a potential harm event.
This solution has been installed on a variety of machines and sites where the risk is the highest, with more to come!

The Brian Perry Civil (BPC) team managing the construction of Silverstream Pipe Bridge – replacing the Wellington region’s most critical water supply asset and supplying all water to Porirua City and North Wellington – used the ECI process to reduce carbon on the project by 62%. This was achieved through collaborative design changes alongside Wellington Water and designer Holmes that reduced the both quantity and type of materials used.

The Living Pā is the bold redevelopment of Te Herenga Waka Marae into one of the world’s most environmentally responsible hubs.
The Living Pā is the bold redevelopment of Te Herenga Waka Marae into one of the world’s most environmentally responsible hubs.
This 3-storied, timber mega structure on high-profile 980sqm urban, mixed-use site on steep excavated land, adjacent to several multi-storey institutional buildings that restrict solar access is targeting Living Building certification under the LBC framework which requires the pā to be net positive in energy, carbon, water, and waste, and demonstrably give back to the local ecology and community.
The Living Pā one of the largest-scale buildings to work towards Living Building certification. This comes with many firsts for Aotearoa, each bringing a unique suite of challenges. It is the first mass timber building to target the Living Building Challenge, and the first mass timber building undertaken by the contractor. It is one of only a few mass timber buildings in Aotearoa.
