Publisher's Synopsis
Water and energy are inexorably linked - energy is needed to pump, treat and transport water, and large quantities of water are needed to support the development of energy. However, both water and energy may face serious constraints as demand for these vital resources continues to rise. This book explores the energy-water nexus related to the national and regional effects of increased biofuel production on water resources; thermoelectric power plants and water and oil shale and water resources.
