Company information
Wales & West Utilities Ltd
Wales & West Utilities is a regulated gas distribution business with around 34,000 km of gas distribution pipelines located in Wales and the South West of England. Covering 1/6th of the UK, WWU serves a catchment area with a population of 7.4 million. Our Head Office is in Newport, South Wales.
Our primary role - undertaken on behalf of gas suppliers - is to transport gas to the gas meters of homes and businesses - from the Northern Welsh border to Cornwall.
WWU does not sell gas but instead ensures that it is piped in a safe and efficient way. The company is also responsible for dealing with gas escapes, laying new gas pipes and replacing and moving pipes and meters. We operate the gas emergency service throughout our catchment area.
We have nearly 1,500 employees working within the business and are committed to the development of our people.
