About the Project

Working closely with a Farmer, the Nicholls team drilled and tested a water borehole at the farm and provided all the appropriate regulatory requirements to enable the farm to reduce their water bills and use the water from their own land.

The creation and sale of Water Credits from this agreement has not only enabled the farm to have their own private water supply, but to have a well needed capital injection into their business.

The Water Credits created have been sold to various developers enabling them to provide a Water Neutrality solution for their planning applications.

The Nicholls Service and Maintenance Team will look after the system into the future.

Should you require any further information regarding our Water Credit Programme, please call our office on 01403 470744.

“I have been extremely impressed with the skill and expertise of the Nicholls team through the project and look forward to years of water from our own private supply.”
