Proceedings: workshop on water supply for electric energy
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6814879
A workshop was held to develop recommendations on research needed to help the electric-utility industry meet its needs for water. Seven priority research areas were defined and twenty other research topics identified. These are described in this report. The major emphasis of the suggested research is in the socio-economic and legal aspects of water use for electric-energy production. Several papers presented as a basis for discussion are reproduced in full. These include papers by Linsley (Water Availability), Ortolano (Public Participation in Planning), Gjelde (Economics), Love (Social Effects Assessment), and Trelease (Water Law). The priority research topics are: alternate sources of cooling water; instream water requirements; public participation in planning; estimates of potential hydroelectric energy; slurry transport of coal; strategies for coping with drought; and the socio-economic basis for resource allocation.
