Cambi signs lease agreement for a THP unit with Thames Water in Oxford

19 Jan 2026 19:29 CET

Cambi has signed a lease for a compact thermal hydrolysis process (THP) unit to
provide additional treatment capacity at the Oxford sewage treatment works.

The agreement has an initial one-year term with two one-year extension options.
Thames Water will operate the system. Annual maintenance is included in each
year of the lease.

“Our collaboration with Thames Water spans three decades and has played an
important role in advancing sustainable solids treatment in the UK. This
agreement underlines Cambi’s flexible delivery model, using leasing solutions
tailored to meet immediate operational needs while permanent capacity is being
evaluated”, said Peder Lillebø, Managing Director of Cambi Solutions.

The lease of the Cambi THP will increase local treatment capacity by more than
50%, enabling Thames Water to process all solids locally instead of trucking
considerable volumes for treatment elsewhere.

Thames Water is the UK’s largest water and wastewater services provider, serving
around 16 million people in London and surroundings. The utility operates Cambi
THP systems at seven locations.

Commissioning is planned in 2026, following installation and commissioning
supervision that is included in the first-year lease fee.
