An Enterprise Ireland Market Guide for the Irish Supply Chain An Overview of AMP 7, the 2020-2025 Water Sector Investment Cycle in England and Wales Source your #IrishInnovation #EvolveUK Ireland has good national water and wastewater capability as a result of successive waves of water intensive industrialisation. In the 1970s, large dairy and meat processing plants were established, followed by large chemical/pharmaceutical plants in the 80s and subsequently large ICT manufacturing plants in the 1990s. All these industry sectors are large water users and consequently large wastewater producers. Water and wastewater treatment technology providers developed to meet the needs of these industry sectors, along with the needs of the expanding market for new municipal water/ wastewater treatment plants catering for an expanding population and stricter environmental controls on discharges. Enterprise Ireland coordinates a well-established cluster of water and wastewater companies (80+) who are well positioned to service the English, Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish municipal and industrial water sectors and their respective capital and growth objectives. This cluster of Enterprise Ireland client companies provide products and service solutions to address global water challenges in areas such as water scarcity; climate change and resilience; rising energy costs; increased regulation; increased quality requirements and ageing infrastructure.
