Report examines links between water and energy

A new study using research from Cambridge Energy Research Associates examines such topics as the strategic significance of water, water’s role in energy production, and how energy is used in providing water.

The report is titled “Thirsty Energy: Water and Energy in the 21st Century,” and it is the product of a collaboration between the World Economic Forum and Cambridge Energy Research Associates, an IHS Inc. company also known as CERA.


One report finding: “Energy’s share of water is likely to be squeezed in the future in many parts of the world.”
