How Digital Technologies Drive Decarbonisation and Energy Efficiency
Published on by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Academic
Climate change isn't waiting – and neither should the water sector
Breaching the 1.5oC warming threshold has intensified the demand for immediate, effective action toward decarbonisation. How can utilities achieve this cost-effectively, and soon?
A recent estimation suggests climate adaptation will cost US water and wastewater utilities over $360 billion by 2050, in O&M costs alone. The time to act is now. This GWI white paper, developed in partnership with Siemens, identifies how digital technologies can help utilities accelerate toward net zero.
Read to find how digital tools can reduce GHG emissions by 13.9%, plus an essential, concise, and actionable roadmap for municipalities seeking to fast-track their journey to decarbonisation.
