Our performance
Our business plan for the 2020-2025 period (known as AMP7) puts our customers at the heart of everything we do. We’ve engaged with 30,000 customers, along with the Yorkshire Forum for Water Customers, to understand individual lifestyles and how they shape what customers want, need and expect from us. In response to customer feedback, we’ve developed a package of 44 performance commitments for AMP7 that cover every aspect of what we do, from water source to sea.
We want our customers to know how well we’re doing, so we report our performance every 3 months and publish the results a few months afterwards. For example, our performance in April-June will be published in September.
Check back again on 15 July for our next update and our full annual report.
This graph shows our April-December 2022 performance for our 44 commitments.

Per capita consumption (PCC)
What is it and why do we measure it?
This is how much water the average person uses each day. It’s important we use water carefully to make sure there’s enough for everyone. PCC only covers household use and is measured in litres per person per day.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
Although we're still off track, PPC is reducing every month. We're still feeling the impact of Covid-19 against this measure, but this is also reducing. We don't expect to achieve the year-end target, but we're still striving to achieve the best result possible in the final quarter of the year.

Drinking water contacts
What is it and why do we measure it?
It’s important that everyone trusts the quality of the water we supply. This performance commitment measures the number of times our customers contact us each year because of issues with the look, taste, or smell of their water. This measure is the number of contacts per 10,000 people over a calendar year.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
After seeing a spike in demand during July and August, because of the hot weather, we had a really strong finish to the year. We haven't achieved our target this quarter, but we've improved on our 2022 performance.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
≤9.7 | 10 | Off track |
Water quality compliance (CRI)
What is it and why do we measure it?
This measures the quality of our water. We test water samples and the results give us a Compliance Risk Index (CRI) score. A lower score is better, and our score increases with each quality failure at all points in our water supply system. Water quality compliance is measured and reported on a calendar year basis.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our regulators have set us an aspirational target of no failures and a score of zero for this performance commitment. We won't achieve this target, but our performance has improved from last year and we expect this to continue to year-end.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
0 | 3.85 | Off track |
Leakage
What is it and why do we measure it?
This measures the amount of water lost between our treatment works and our customers’ taps. Water is precious and it’s important we lose as little as possible, so we work hard to keep this number as low as possible. We measure water lost through leaks in megalitres per day (Ml/day) and the number doesn’t include water lost inside buildings and homes.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
Although we're still off track, we're reducing the gap to target each month. We expect this to continue into the final quarter of the year and we're striving to deliver the best result possible.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
≤281.44Ml/d | 292.25Ml/d | Off track |
Repairing or replacing customer owned pipes
What is it and why do we measure it?
Reducing water loss from leaks is a key aim for us, and some of those leaks happen in pipes owned by our customers. We can help repair these pipes, so this performance commitment measures the number of household supply pipe repairs and renewals we carry out each year for no charge.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our forecast for the rest of the year falls short of the year-end target. However, we're looking at ways we can improve this position and perform as strongly as possible against this measure.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
≥5,540 | 2,594 | Off track |
Water supply interruptions
What is it and why do we measure it?
We know that having to cut off the water supply, for any amount of time, impacts on our customers and we want to keep interruptions to supply as low as possible. This performance commitment measures the average supply time lost per customer, across all of our customers, for interruptions that lasted three hours or more.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
We were heavily impacted by three major events in the Ripon area during the second quarter. These events accounted for almost 5 minutes of our total. Because of this, we won't meet our year-end target for this measure, but we'll continue to put plans in place to deliver the best result possible.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
≤00:04:23 | 00:07:19 | Off track |
Unplanned outage
What is it and why do we measure it?
It’s important that our water treatment works operate reliably. Sometimes our water treatment works shut down because of equipment failures, we call this an 'unplanned outage'. This performance commitment measures the percentage of time are treatment works are down. We want this number to be as low as possible.
How are we doing?
We're currently on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our performance against this measure has consistently been on track throughout the year. We expect this to continue to year-end.
Target | Result | Performance |
---|---|---|
≤2.80% | 1.89% | On track |
Mains repairs
What is it and why do we measure it?
We need to look after our water pipes. This performance commitment measures the number of mains repairs we carry out on our clean water mains network per 1,000 km. This number doesn’t include repairs to communication and supply pipes.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
This last quarter saw a total of 2,403 repairs made to our mains network. This is significantly higher than previous quarters, mainly due to the impact of colder winter weather. Unfortunately, it's really unlikely we'll achieve the year-end target for this measure, but we'll continue to strive for the best result possible.

≤123.4 | 165.4 | Off track |
Significant water supply events
What is it and why do we measure it?
We know having to cut off the water supply, for any amount of time, impacts our customers. So, we want to keep interruptions to water supply as low as possible. This performance commitment measures the number of water supply interruptions that last 12 hours or longer. This number includes supply interruptions that are planned, unplanned or caused by a third party.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
At the end of the third quarter, we've had seven significant water events confirmed and nine events at risk, resulting in 16 being reported. We're currently reviewing the final status of the nine events at risk, and are hopeful of being closer to target at year-end.
Target | Result | Performance |

Low pressure
What is it and why do we measure it?
We all want acceptable water pressure when we turn on the taps. This performance commitment measures the number of properties getting, or at risk of getting, water pressure below the low-pressure reference level. The low-pressure reference level is a minimum standard set by our regulator, Ofwat.
How are we doing?
We're currently on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our performance against this measure has stayed strong and we expect this level to continue through to year-end.
Target | Result | Performance |

Internal sewer flooding
What is it and why do we measure it?
Sometimes sewage can flood homes or business. We call this internal sewer flooding and we’re always working hard to lower the number of times this happens. This performance commitment measures the total number of internal sewer flooding incidents through the year per 10,000 sewer connections.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
We know sewer flooding is a key priority for our customers, so we’re working hard to improve our performance by:
- carrying out extra checks on sewers which are prone to flooding
- looking for blockages and clearing them before they cause flooding
- checking for defects in our pipes and fixing them before they become a problem
- installing telemetry devices which give us an early warning
- promoting what can and can't be flushed down the loo.

Operational carbon
What is it and why do we measure it?
As part of our drive to reduce carbon emissions in the UK, this performance commitment measures the drop in net operational carbon equivalent emissions compared to our performance in 2019-20. This includes any greenhouse gas emissions created by our day to day operational activities like the electricity we use, fuel we put into our vehicles and emissions created when we treat our water and sewage. We report our progress in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions and a lower number is better.
How are we doing?
We're currently on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our performance continues to be strong against this commitment. So far this year, we've greatly reduced our gas consumption which puts us in a strong position for the remainder of the year.

Capital carbon and emissions arising from owned land
What is it and why do we measure it?
Water companies invest millions of pounds every year in improving and building new assets, we call this our capital investment programme. This programme makes sure we’ve got enough drinking water and we can take away and treat all the wastewater. We also own a lot of land in Yorkshire.
This performance commitment measures the drop in carbon emissions from the delivery of our capital investment programme and the carbon emissions that come from land we own. It’s a whole-AMP measure which covers the 2020-25 period, and we compare it to our performance in 2020-21.
To give you a measure of our progress, we’ve broken up the whole-AMP target into yearly targets and we report our progress in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions.
How are we doing?
We're currently not on track to achieve our year-end target.
Our capital carbon omission volume is still higher than we'd like it to be. However, we're significantly closing the gap between our performance and our target. We expect to see a strong final quarter to bring us back to target by year-end.
