About Wave

Wave is a joint venture between Anglian Water Group and Northumbrian Water Group. It brought together the business retail teams of Anglian Water and of Northumbrian Water and Essex & Suffolk Water.

The Competition and Markets Authority cleared the joint venture in August 2017, and Wave now serves business customers across England and Scotland.

From Black Sheep Utilities

Thinking about Wave? Here's how we can help

At Black Sheep Utilities, we're an independent business energy and water broker, not part of Wave or any other retailer. Your regional water company looks after the pipes and the water itself. Your retailer handles your bills, meter reads and customer service, and that's the part you can switch.

  • Compare suitable retailers: when your contract is up, we compare Wave with the retailers that cover your area and present the options that best suit your business.
  • Handle the switch: we do the leg work from start to finish, so your water keeps flowing and you don't have to chase anyone.
  • Check your bills: our team looks for errors and estimated reads, and we'll take it up with your retailer for you if something's wrong.

You don't have to do it alone. Find out more about our business water service, or give us a call.
