Barwon Water Research and Development with Barwon Water Chief Scientist Dr. Will Buchanan

Hi, I'm Dr. Will Buchanan, Chief Scientist at Barwon Water. Our commitment to research and development (R&D) drives our mission to deliver safe, secure, and reliable water services to our community. By investing in R&D, we continually enhance our methods, ensuring a secure water future where our rivers flow, our food grows, and our impact is low.
We lead with innovation, focusing on areas such as the circular economy, emerging contaminants, smart networks, and climate change. Our future-focused approach keeps us at the forefront of industry developments, providing real-world research opportunities for the next generation of environmental scientists.
Collaboration is at the heart of our research strategy. We partner with world-class universities, industry bodies, other water corporations, regulators, and government agencies. Our alliances with Intelligent Water Networks, Water Research Australia, and the Water Services Association of Australia further strengthen our efforts.
Our research supports the delivery of our Strategy 2030 outcomes: safe, secure, sustainable water; innovative, reliable services; a healthier environment; and trust, value, and affordability. Through R&D, we aim to find innovative solutions for today's challenges and tomorrow's opportunities. We look forward to sharing our latest R&D projects with you.
