    The intersection of behavioural science, the water sector, and utilities more broadly

    Standard awareness campaigns rarely shift water consumption behaviour. Armenak Antinyan explores how behavioural science and live field experimentation can design interventions that actually move the needle - and how you measure real-world impact rather than vanity metrics.

    Talking gibberish and siloed solutions: how water issues can learn from both nature, and Janet and John

    The water industry has a communication problem and a capital allocation problem.

    Can Britain build the energy system it needs?

    The UK has been identified as the most expensive place in the world to build nuclear power plants, yet nuclear remains central to long-term energy security.

    The quiet revolution in how utilities get paid

    Every utilities business runs on one thing customers almost never think about: getting paid. For decades, direct debit has been the invisible backbone of the whole operation - reliable, familiar, and largely unquestioned. But a new wave of payment technology is changing what's possible, and in this episode, Lindley Gooden sits down with Myles Stephenson, CEO of Modulr, to explore why the way utilities collect money is quietly - but fundamentally - shifting.

    Can Britain avoid a water crisis? An interview with the Interim CEO of Ofwat

    The UK is facing a water crisis that's been decades in the making - ageing infrastructure, rising demand, and the growing pressure of climate change are converging at once. In this episode, Lindley Gooden sits down with Chris Walters, Chief Executive of Ofwat, to dig into the scale of the challenge: from planning for once-in-500-year droughts to a £104 billion investment programme, and a landmark regulatory shake-up that will reshape the sector entirely.
