Webinar // Water-Energy Policy Nexus
This webinar, organised by the Australian Water School (AWS), illustrates how energy choices can affect water demand, water security and environmental outcomes and highlights why integrated water and energy planning is fast becoming a critical policy and investment issue.
Water-Energy Policy Nexus: Water and energy choices must evolve together to secure a low‑emission, water‑resilient future.
How will the low-emission energy transition reshape our water future? Join this timely webinar to explore the powerful connection between water and energy — and why it matters for Australia’s path to a low-emissions future.
From cooling power plants and generating hydropower to supporting low-emission technologies, water is essential to the way energy is produced. As energy systems evolve, understanding how different technologies use and compete for water is becoming increasingly important for resilience, sustainability and long-term planning.
In this webinar, participants hear how energy choices can affect water demand, water security and environmental outcomes. We’ll explore the water needs of both established and emerging technologies, unpack the key trade-offs, and highlight why integrated water and energy planning is fast becoming a critical policy and investment issue.
