Title Developing Renewable Energy within the Water Industry
Author Dr. Gareth Harrison
Company University of Edinburgh
Synopsis
The drive for low-carbon energy supply has led to ambitious targets for the use of renewable energy. As a major user of electricity, and with opportunities to develop hydropower and other renewable sources at its disposal, the water industry can make a major contribution to meeting renewable targets. This paper explores the scope of renewable energy developments within the water industry, the issues that can constrain it, and the developments and measures that will help deliver a low-carbon future.

Editorial

The world at present is running out of water, even though water constitutes a major portion of the earth’s surface, but very less percentage is available as freshwater. An immediate policy to preserve fresh water is the need of the hour.

Considering this situation, H20 Pro Water Treatment System assures to filter waste water to such a degree that almost 99% of the water can be recycled in order to be used again.

Environmental concerns will increase in the eyes of the public laws and will be more stringent with more inspections. This will enforce any manager to ensure that his company is using the right combination of chemicals and treatments in its water management.

The federal government’s ENERGY STAR program will list qualifying energy-efficient products in at least three categories of interest to dealers, namely water coolers, commercial ice makers, and geothermal heat pumps. This certification will help in meeting certain agreed-upon performance or material standards in water treatment.
