In our experience and analysis it is difficult to reduce water use to the levels described without compromising functionality, unless Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) for internal use is incorporated. RWH is rarely used on housing due to the cost, ongoing management issues and additional embodied carbon. Research also suggests that RWH increases CO² emissions at a time when we are seeking to reduce emissions. A target of 110 litres per person is considered more achievable and in line with the Government’s own guidance (New water saving measures to safeguard supplies - GOV.UK)
