Webinar // Analyzing the Water-Energy Nexus: Case Studies that Examine the Crucial Connection

As the need for energy increases, the need for water also increases, and with the growing population there is a growing demand for both of these resources. It takes a considerable amount of water to produce energy for fuel production, cooling, and hydropower among other things. It also takes a large amount of energy to extract, treat, and transport water for household and production uses. The webinar will feature several case studies that examine this connection, and reveal fresh approaches to the management of energy and water. Speakers include Ned Spang, Ph.D., Program Manager of the UC Davis Center for Water-Energy Efficiency; Heather Cooley, Director for the Pacific Institute's Water Program; and Amanda Acheson, Sustainable Building Program Manager for Coconino County, Arizona. Applied Solutions' webinars are recorded and sent out to registered participants after the event.
