The Strategic Resource Option (SRO) Programme which is focused on the two new multi-billion-pound raw water reservoir developments
- Fens and Lincolnshire Reservoirs in the East of England - is the largest and most complex ever undertaken by Anglian Water. The Programme is required to secure planning approval for each of these schemes as Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs) via the Development Consent Order (DCO) route. Also, to establish the delivery stage procurement of future licenced regulated entities known as Infrastructure Providers (IPs) to design, build and finance the reservoir systems, with Anglian Water as operator, and ultimately provide a new potable water supply to customers.

Fens Reservoir is being jointly promoted by Anglian Water with Cambridge Water, ultimately serving both companies' customer bases; with Lincolnshire Reservoir being an Anglian Water only scheme.

Programme development funding, secured via the RAPID/Ofwat regulatory process across both AMP7 & AMP8, is likely to be above 500m. Delivery capex costs for the IP entities post 2028/29 to build and finance the reservoirs, for which procurement and project financing needs to be established, is expected to be above 5 billion.

This is a critical role in securing the projects' pathway throughout the pre-application and examination phases of the projects' development lifecycle and the securing of a Development Consent that is fundable, constructable and ensures a successful transition through to the post consent phases.
