Understanding the water use of power production is an important step to both a sustainable
energy transition and an improved understanding of water conservation measures …

Thermoelectric power plants traditionally have required huge volumes of water to condense
steam from the turbine exhaust. The complex interdependency between water and energy …

Rapid urbanization and the expansion of metropolitan areas have resulted in severe
demands on water and energy resources, which threaten the sustainability of the urban …

Water stress is often evaluated by scarcity: the share of available water supply being
consumed by humans. However, some consumptive uses of water are more or less flexible …

As energy and water are fundamentally intertwined, understanding the spatial and temporal
evolution of thermoelectric water use and water stress is important for both sustainable …

Objective: The aim of the present article is to conduct an integrated assessment in order to
explore whether CCS could be a viable technological option for significantly reducing future …

Previous studies had shown that the virtual water flows had intensified local water scarcity of
China. There is an urgent need to identify the drivers of virtual water flows and provide the …
