PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.<br />
Project Title Minimising energy <strong>of</strong> existing systems without compromising<br />
quality objectives<br />
Proposed by Concepts group<br />
Background It is widely acknowledged that opportunities exist to fur<strong>the</strong>r increase<br />
<strong>the</strong> energy efficiency <strong>of</strong> existing water cycle systems. Operators <strong>of</strong><br />
systems around <strong>the</strong> globe are developing <strong>and</strong> implementing energy<br />
efficient technologies <strong>and</strong> practices for different parts <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> water<br />
cycle. <strong>GWRC</strong> membership will benefit from drawing up, fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />
developing <strong>and</strong> implementing <strong>the</strong>se best practices. Clarity on <strong>the</strong><br />
potential energy saving would be valuable.<br />
Objectives This project should identify <strong>and</strong> fur<strong>the</strong>r develop energy efficient<br />
technologies <strong>and</strong> operational practices, both for water <strong>and</strong> waste<br />
water. This includes a cradle-to-cradle approach covering design<br />
build, operations <strong>and</strong> demolition. The project should also develop<br />
indicators to determine <strong>the</strong> potential energy saving.<br />
