2 Water Energy Water WATER to ENERGY: Annual global water withdrawal for energy production is 580 billion m³/year (or 15% of the freshwater consumption) (source: OECD/IEA, 2012) 70 billion m³/year are not returned to its source (source: OECD/IEA, 2012) ENERGY to WATER: The US consumes annually 520 Million MWh on water related energy use This corresponds with 13% of all electricity consumption in the country (source: The carbon footprint of water, River Network, 2009) Seite 2

3 ... let us put energy consumption into proportion... For example for lifting water: 1 m³ 1 m³ lift 1 m up! = equals ½ hour... For example for water desalination: 1 m³ 1 m³ = equals 200 minutes Seite 3

4 How much energy is used at what stage? Water Production and Conveyance Water Treatment Water Distribution Wastewater collection & treatment low 0,00 kwh/m³ 0,03 kwh/m³ 0,07 kwh/m³ 0,19 kwh/m³ high 3,73 kwh/m³ 4,27 kwh/m³ 0,32 kwh/m³ 1,23 kwh/m³ average --> 1,87 kwh/m³ 2,15 kwh/m³ 0,19 kwh/m³ 0,71 kwh/m³ accumulated --> 1,87 kwh/m³ 4,01 kwh/m³ 4,21 kwh/m³ 4,91 kwh/m³ What can we do to reduce the energy demand? Not much! Little!... we can do much better! optimize! Seite 4

5 ... so what are the common problems with WATER DISTRIBUTION? Poor workmanship Worn material Bad management of house connections No data! Seite 5

6 ... which result mostly in WATER LOSSES?... and generally poor asset management! Seite 6

7 How much water is effectively lost? Source: Guidelines for water loss reduction, giz, 2011 Seite 7

9 How to improve water distribution? 1. Understand your distribution system! Seite 9

10 How to optimize the water distribution? 1. Understand your distribution system! - Document the network Seite 10

11 How to optimize the water distribution? 1. Understand your distribution system! - Document the network - Create district metering areas (DMA s) ZONE 1 VALVE ZONE 2 ZONE 4 ZONE 3 Seite 11

12 How to improve water distribution? 1. Understand your distribution system! - Document the network - Create district metering areas (DMA s) - Measure flow and correlate to subscribers ZONE 1 ZONE METERS VALVE ZONE 2 ZONE 4 ZONE 3 Seite 12

13 1. Understand your distribution system! - Document the network How to improve water distribution? - Create district metering areas (DMA s) - Measure flow and correlate to subscribers - Develop Water Balance (according to the International Water Association, IWA) Seite 13

14 1. Understand your distribution system! 2. Improve the system! How to improve water distribution? - Develop a Loss reduction strategy - Carry out leak detection measures - Implement construction measures: Short term solution: Reduce network pressure Investment: USD Water saved: m³/night Households served: Payback-period: 2 years Financed through: GIZ-PPP Seite 14

15 How to improve water distribution? 1. Understand your distribution system! 2. Improve the system! - Develop a Loss reduction strategy - Carry out leak detection measures - Implement construction measures: Short term solution: Reduce network pressure Long term solution: Repair the network Cost depend on many parameters and need to be studied carefully!... but if well done, it is definitively worth the effort!
