Business Tariff Calculator
The new business charges will apply to both business customers and mixed-use customers. Our analysis indicates that 83% of connections will see their annual bill decrease, stay the same, or increase by less than €250. Only 17% of connections will see their bill rise by €250 or more.
Please note only water in and out costs are changing, trade effluent costs are not included in the changes. To get an idea of what your new charges could be please use the calculator.
Bills increasing by more than €250 will be entitled to transition to the final tariffs gradually.
