Neil Bowman Memorial Lecture: "Severn Trent Water: Sustainable Futures" - Tony Wray, Chief

De Montfort University presents Tony Wray, Chief Executive of Severn Trent Water. His talk, "Severn Trent Water: Sustainable Futures"


The lecture will be delivered by Tony Wray, Chief Executive of Severn Trent Water. His talk, entitled Severn Trent Water: Sustainable Futures, will explore what the future has in store for Severn Trent Water, one of the region’s largest employers.

Tony Wray believes the future holds a number of complex challenges and he will be tackling some of those issues, such as climate change, water resource management, security of supply, the opportunities competition could bring, affordable bills, investor confidence and long-term business prosperity, sharing some of the solutions that Severn Trent Water are developing. These are long term, sustainable and
practical solutions which, if delivered by Severn Trent Water, will help ensure prosperity and security for the organisation into the future. In doing so, Severn Trent Water will also create and maintain a successful business that will contribute in a sustainable way to the regional economy, bringing benefits to customers, investors and employees.

The Memorial Lecture was established in 2000 to commemorate the services of Neil Bowman, Professor of Environmental Design, to the University and, in particular, to the Institute of Energy and Sustainable Development. Professor Bowman became the first Director of the Institute in 1994 and was responsible for its expansion into a strong research group with internationally respected capabilities. The Lecture seeks to widen our perspective of the challenges we face in moving towards a low-energy and more sustainable future.
