Abstract
Initiatives to advance water conservation through energy efficiency measures are an essential part of any sound water management plan. Energy efficiency and conservation practices provide significant and well-documented net water savings. Incorporating sound energy planning policies, with an emphasis on “incentivizing” energy efficiency and energy conservation, into state water policy guidelines in Georgia would provide valuable water quality benefits for Georgians and at the same time save money for commercial and residential electricity consumers.
