Our approach
Sustainability is a key consideration in how Yorkshire Water operates, invests and finances its business. Our Sustainable Finance Framework provides the foundation for raising finance in a way that supports the delivery of long-term environmental and social benefits alongside strong financial performance.
Our approach recognises that many of our activities contribute directly to resilient water and wastewater services, environmental improvement and positive outcomes for customers and communities. By adopting a whole-business approach, we seek to ensure that our financing strategy reflects the wider impact of our operations and investment programme.
We are on the third iteration of our Sustainable Finance Framework and are committed to maintaining a Framework that is aligned with recognised market standards.
