Stream will unlock the potential of water data to benefit customers, society, and the environment. Stream will put in place technology and processes to remove the barriers to opening up and sharing water company data. The demand for transparency and openness has never been greater and we’ve built a strong team to deliver this quickly and efficiently. Our partners bring great experience and learning from having done this in other sectors such as banking and energy. Stream is not just focused on a single issue but will support hundreds of future data projects. We have many tough challenges in the sector, and we need to use our data to work with many groups and organisations because the challenges and solutions don’t stop at water company boundaries. Being able to collaborate around data is a key ingredient to drive innovation and improve sector performance.

This initiative builds on the Breakthrough 2 project, Stream.

Update from the project (July 2025)

We’re into the final stretch of the implementation phase of Stream and preparing to enter the next phase focused on increasing our Scale and reach. We’ve done a lot of outreach in the last few months including multiple events to get researchers hands on with our data to come up with innovative ideas to help improve river health.
