NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The UK's water industry is subject to abstraction limits, which regulate the amount of water that can be extracted from rivers, lakes, and groundwater sources to protect the environment. These limits are typically set by the Environment Agency and are designed to prevent over-extraction and maintain healthy ecosystems. As drought conditions worsen, water companies are facing increased pressure to balance supply and demand while adhering to these limits.
