Join us on April 25, 2022, for the UC Davis Industrial Decarbonization Symposium. This in-person event will bring together public and private sector stakeholders to discuss near- and medium-term opportunities for decarbonization of California’s industry. Conversations will explore ways industry, utilities, regulators, and researchers can partner together to advance cost-effective solutions that reduce GHG emissions and increase resiliency and load flexibility. While the focus of this symposium will be on California, the solutions explored will be relevant nationally and internationally.

Leak Reduction is the Most Cost-Effective Urban Water Management Tool
In a study published in Environmental Research Letters, researchers used data from over 800 utilities across 4 states to characterize water losses across the country. They developed a model to assess the economically efficient level of losses and used that model to compare various water loss regulations and modeling approaches. The model shows that for a median utility it is economically efficient to reduce water losses by 34.7%. While uniform approaches are not recommended, researchers found that applying utility-specific solutions can save water at a profit for both utilities and society. [Read the Article]
