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. No changes to charges are expected until the first half of 2020.
Please note only water in and out costs are changing, trade effluent costs are not included in the proposed changes.
