The annual fee is due for each meter. It is intended to cover the benefit deriving from having a water supply. It is billed per calendar year (from 1 to 31 December), regardless of the date of the meter reading. It remains due even if there is no consumption at all.
This annual fee covers part of SWDE's fixed costs:
- maintenance of connections;
- meter depreciation;
- a contribution to the cost of controls and on-call and response services.
