Abstract
Climate change and increasing
population pressure make it increasingly urgent to find ways
to improve the management of the water-energy nexus. The
desalination, pumping, distribution, and treatment of water
use significant energy resources. The extraction and
production of energy consume substantial amounts of water
resources. In addition, negative effects on the environment
are often the consequences of the management of the water
and energy sectors. The report highlights the prospects for
addressing these and other challenges at the water-energy
nexus. It does this by drawing, in part, on some of the most
important breakthroughs in the nexus that have come from the region.
