American Water and Abengoa Sign Worldwide Licensing Agreement for NPXpress Technology 4/25/2014, finance.yahoo.com
American Water is licensing NPXpress for sustainable wastewater treatment and nutrient removal. The NPXpress technology helps wastewater utilities reduce costs while improving the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus. Because the technology operates at lower oxygen levels, electricity consumption for aeration can be reduced by up to 50 percent. In addition, the process can eliminate the need for costly chemical addition (methanol) by up to 80 to 100 percent. This process provides a more affordable and sustainable way of treating sewage.
This is the first time American Water has licensed an internally generated technology.

System Improvement Charges Distribution and Collection puc.state.pa.us
The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commision (PUC) encourages system improvement charges to allow a surcharge on customer bills to accelerate the replacement of aging facilities without waiting for the completion of a rate case to begin receiving a return on investment. System improvement charges reduce the frequency and the associated costs of base rate cases while maintaining a high level of customer protections.
