Hafren Dyfrdwy Cyfyngedig (Welsh for 'Severn Dee Limited', after the two main rivers in its region, plus the Welsh incorporation type) is a water company providing water and wastewater treatment services, operating in north east and mid Wales. It provides water only in Wrexham and parts of Denbighshire and Flintshire and both water and wastewater in northern Powys. It previously served north east Wales and parts of North West England as Dee Valley Water until June 2018. Its parent entity, Dee Valley Group plc had shares listed on the FTSE Fledgling Index on the London Stock Exchange, but was purchased by Severn Trent in February 2017.[2]
The company is regulated under the Water Industry Act 1991.
On 1 July 2018, all of the water service area of Dee Valley Water and Severn Trent lying in Wales became part of the Dee Valley Water company, which was granted a new wastewater appointment and renamed as Hafren Dyfrdwy (Welsh for 'Severn Dee').[3][4][5] The remainder of Dee Valley Water, lying in England (at Chester), was taken over by sister company Severn Trent Water.
