| Summary: | This guidance note presents an overview
of the benefits of improving energy efficiency in urban
water and wastewater utilities (WWUs). It defines the
typical energy efficiency and load management measures and
the process to identify and assess these measures. The note
addresses some of the major considerations related to
implementation and financing of investments in energy
efficiency, and highlights past activities and lessons
learned. Included are suggested actions by national and
local governments, international financial institutions, and
senior management of WWUs for promoting energy efficiency in
WWUs, and a road map for mainstreaming energy efficiency in
water sector infrastructure projects. |
