SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED is a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 02366686, according to Companies House. It was incorporated on 1 April 1989, and its registered office is at Severn Trent Centre, 2 St John’s Street, Coventry, CV1 2LZ. The company is recorded with an “Active” status.

Companies House classifies the company’s principal activity under UK Standard Industrial Classification code 36000, water collection, treatment and supply. SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED is appointed as a water and sewerage undertaker under a consolidated licence granted by Ofwat, the economic regulator for the water industry in England and Wales. It abstracts, treats and supplies drinking water, and collects and treats wastewater, for households and businesses across its appointed area in the English Midlands. Ofwat sets periodic price controls that determine the revenue the company may recover from customers and the investment it must deliver; the current regulatory period, known as AMP8, runs from 2025 to 2030.

SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED last filed group accounts, made up to 31 March 2026, with Companies House on 10 August 2026, and its most recent confirmation statement, dated 1 June 2026, was filed on 5 June 2026 with no updates.

Shareholders of SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED

Companies House’s Persons with Significant Control register, reviewed 10 September 2026, identifies one active entity with significant control over SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED: Severn Trent Draycote Limited (company number 07681784), a UK-registered private limited holding company recorded as holding 75% or more of shares and voting rights, together with the right to appoint or remove directors, notified with effect from 6 April 2016. Zavia’s internal shareholder data corroborates this, recording Severn Trent Draycote Limited as holding the entire allotted ordinary share capital of SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED (251,000,100,000 ordinary shares of £0.001 each), as verified 7 September 2026. No minority shareholders or individuals holding shares directly are recorded, and disclosure at this tier appears complete.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

No individual has been identified as an ultimate beneficial owner of SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED. Tracing the verified chain of significant control: Severn Trent Draycote Limited’s own Persons with Significant Control register names Severn Trent Investment Holdings Limited (company number 07560050) as its controlling entity, holding 75% or more of shares and voting rights since 6 April 2016; Severn Trent Investment Holdings Limited’s register in turn names Severn Trent Plc (company number 02366619) as its controlling entity, also since 6 April 2016. Because control ultimately rests with Severn Trent Plc, a public limited company whose shares are not held by a single identifiable natural person, no individual UBO can be calculated or verified for SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED from the available filings.

Data availability

Classification: Major shareholders only. Companies House confirms Severn Trent Draycote Limited’s 75%-or-more holding in SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED at each tier up to the publicly listed ultimate parent, and Zavia’s internal share-register data corroborates full ownership by Severn Trent Draycote Limited, but the statutory significant-control regime discloses only the 75%-or-more band rather than a precise percentage, and does not identify individual beneficial owners once control rests with a listed public company.

Data availability

Classification: Parent only. Companies House confirms SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED’s corporate parents up to the publicly listed ultimate parent, Severn Trent Plc, but no verified direct or indirect subsidiaries of SEVERN TRENT WATER LIMITED itself were located in official filings. Zavia’s internal corporate-linkage data references additional entities elsewhere within the wider Severn Trent Plc group, including an intermediate Hong Kong-registered holding company, but this could not be independently verified against the current Companies House Persons with Significant Control filings reviewed for this profile and has therefore been omitted as a possible, unverified relationship.
