Hull-based firm Axis Telecom Ltd, trading as ‘Axis for Business Ltd’ has applied to Ofwat for retail water supply and sewerage licences.
Founded in 2001, Axis is a independent telecoms and energy supplier to businesses across the UK.
The company website describes it as “ proactive to market change and actively seeking ways to improve and refresh the business.”
The synopsis of the company’s business plan submitted to Ofwat says Axis for Business Ltd is a multi-utility supplier and “sees water as a natural fit to its portfolio”, which will enable it to be a one stop shop for SME telecoms and utility services.
Deadline to submit representations or objections about the application is 22 February 2018.
Craig Nienaber, Business Development Manager for Safe Access Solutions (SAS) at HUBER Technology, explores why the company is seeing a growing level of interest in its safe access solutions for critical infrastructure providers, including their application in wastewater treatment assets.
