Funded Activity Summary

Mapping the water-energy nexus: new knowledge for resources security. This project plans to systematically evaluate energy impacts of urban water security across three interconnected systems: the direct consequences of water supply; the indirect influence of water use in industry and homes; and the remote implications of water security on supply chains. The project intends to use a new, high-resolution, open-access, multi-regional, input-output model of the Australian economy and its resources use: the Industrial Ecology Virtual Laboratory. It expects to help address escalating energy demands and costs for urban water by identifying alternative and optimal pathways for addressing the energy impacts of water supply.
