Impact

Water underpins civilization, but faces acute pressures from pollution, scarcity, aging infrastructure, and climate change. Upwell Water addresses those challenges with technical and business model innovation to enable supply, treatment, and management, while prioritizing environmental stewardship.

Most water assets have historically been developed and paid for by governments. Large government agencies and utilities can often support reliable supply and waste management with necessary upgrades to infrastructure. The rest of the water system is “off grid” and forced to pay for resources and infrastructure or lacks the resources to do so: smaller utilities, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and residential users.

Now, through Upwell Water, those customers can pay as they go, and even sell back water assets they purchased in the past. The result is easier, faster deployment of worthy solutions to water needs.

Addressing stakeholder needs in the water industry

Solutions Partners

Initial funding provides barriers to innovation for solutions providers in the water industry. Upwell Water eliminates this obstacle by paying upfront, so that customers can pay over time. In addition, solution partners can receive capital for their businesses to achieve liquidity or enable growth.

End Users

Upwell Water empowers end users - from farming operations, to cities and utilities, to industrial and commercial businesses, to homeowners - to avoid upfront costs by providing initial financing alternatives, freeing up capital for other uses. End users who already own water assets can also sell those assets to Upwell Water.
