Pennon sees lower customer demand as consumption falls

Pennon, whose main asset is South West Water but acquired Sutton and East Surrey (SES) Group this summer, said customer demand over the year to 31 March 2025 will be lower, offsetting increases in tariffs and customer numbers.

The company said decreased demand was a result of its 'Water is Precious' campaign, in which it urged customers to use water more efficiently and reduce overall consumption.

As part of the campaign, Pennon paid customers with credits to their bill if they reduced consumption.

Kenya Water Service Regulatory Board announces new tariffs for 2024-2025

KENYA – The Kenya Water Service Regulatory Board (WASREB) has announced new water tariffs for the 2024-2025 financial year, which will see residents across various towns face increased water prices.

The new rates, set to take effect from August 2, 2024, to June 30, 2025, will affect domestic, commercial, and educational users across the country.

In Kakamega, domestic water users will pay between KES91 (US$0.71) and KES 227 (US$1.77) per cubic meter (M3), while commercial users will be charged between KES 136(US$1.06) and KES 238 (US$1.86). Educational institutions will pay between KES 68 (US$0.53) and KES 170 (US$1.33).

Kisumu residents will face charges ranging from US$1.12 to US$1.38 per M3 for domestic use, with commercial rates set at US$0.98 to US$1.38, and schools paying US$0.52 to US$0.95.

In Nyeri, domestic users will pay between US$0.41 and US$0.88, while commercial users and educational institutions will pay US$0.66 to US$1.17 and US$0.36 to US$0.48, respectively.

Kiambu residents will see domestic water rates between US$0.55 and US$1.22, commercial users between US$0.92 and US$1.22, and schools between US$0.65 and US$0.98.

The new tariffs come at a time when Kenya is grappling with a severe national water crisis.

According to a report by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), over 16 million Kenyans rely on untreated and unsafe water sources.

Rural families are particularly affected, spending an average of US$38 per month on water, while urban households with piped systems, such as those in Nairobi, spend significantly less at US$4.46.

Experts attribute the ongoing water poverty in urban areas to low supply, high demand, and poor water management planning.

Malesi Shivaji, CEO of the Kenya Water and Civil Society Network (KEWASNET), pointed out that Kenya’s current water infrastructure is insufficient to meet the needs of the growing urban population, further exacerbating shortages in major cities.

Efforts to address the water crisis were highlighted during the Kenya Water and Sanitation Investors Conference in March 2024, where the importance of collaboration between public and private sectors was underscored.

Mecuria Assefaw, Manager of the African Development Bank’s Water Security and Sanitation Division, emphasized the need for diversified investments to bridge Kenya’s KES 995 billion (US$7.5M) financing gap to achieve universal access to water and sanitation by 2030.

Stakeholders continue to push for Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) as a solution to close the funding gap and improve Kenya’s water and sanitation infrastructure for the future.

Goldman Sachs trades £1 billion in Thames Water debt

(Oct 1): Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has executed more than £1 billion ($1.3 billion) of trades in Thames Water’s bonds in September, as it makes a market between original investors exiting the beleaguered utility and opportunistic players scooping up the debt at a discount.

Hedge funds and distressed funds are continuing to bid for the debt of the UK’s largest water provider, said dealers at the US bank in a note to clients seen by Bloomberg on Monday. Around £3 billion of bonds have changed hands in total this month, according to the note.

The trading comes as the company has kicked off talks with creditors while it struggles to raise equity. Worries the firm will soon run out of cash led S&P Global Inc. and Moody’s Ratings to downgrade its Class A debt — deemed the safest — by five and six notches respectively last week. They also downgraded its riskier Class B debt.

“The Thames structure remains topical at GS as risk continues to change hands post downgrade,” the bank said in the note. “Selling was initially in Class B debt, but more recently we’ve been sellers of Class A risk as well.”

Buyers are favoring the more illiquid and lower cash price paper, as the market difference between shorter-dated and longer-dated bonds flattens, the note added. Companies with large amounts of debt often have bonds with wildly differing cash prices because notes are issued over multiple years at different points in the rate cycle.

Thames Water’s €1 billion ($1.1 billion) of bonds due January 2031 are indicated at 72.8 cents on the euro, down almost 3 cents since the beginning of September, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Goldman Sachs has also been trading some of Thames’s bank debt, with £145 million changing hands via its desk since April, according to the note. A spokesperson for Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

S&P sees a debt restructuring — and consequently a default — as likely in the coming 12 months. The company has said it does not expect to receive funds in the form of equity ahead of a final determination by regulator Ofwat, expected at the earliest on Dec. 19.

Thames has been negotiating with a group of creditors holding £10 billion of the company’s Class A debt over options to delay a potential liquidity shortfall. The group of creditors — including investors from BlackRock Inc. and Elliott Investment Management — has been working on its own plan to address the need for new funds and the unsustainable debt pile.
