The UK’s household expenditure on water supply and miscellaneous services for dwellings is projected to experience a modest upward trend from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from £11.18 billion to £11.9 billion. Compared to 2023’s base year, this indicates a consistent pattern of growth as projected values increase annually between approximately 1.7% and 1.9%. Over the five-year horizon, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) demonstrates a steady increment of around 1.6% per year.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential impacts of regulatory changes on water tariffs and household spending.
- Technological advancements in water conservation and efficiency measures influencing expenditure.
- Environmental factors and climate change potentially altering water supply dynamics and service costs.
