Water for Energy
IEA(2012)統計2010
年時全球能源系統總
耗水量達到5830億立
方公尺,約占全球耗
水量的15%。
Energy for Water
以美國為例,其水資
源生產系統耗能約占
全美總耗能的4%,而
耗電量則占13%。

“We cannot build more power plants without realizing that
they impinge on our freshwater supplies. And we cannot
build more water delivery and cleaning facilities without
driving up energy demand.” – Weber @ Scientific American
