Resumo(s)
Sales for air conditioning are growing rapidly in buildings, more than tripling between 1990 and
2016. This energy use for air conditioning comes from a combination of rising temperatures,
rising population and economic growth. Energy demand for climate control will triple by 2050,
consuming more energy than the United States, the European Union and Japan today. This
increase in energy will directly impact water consumption, either to cool a condenser of
equipment directly or to serve indirectly as a basis for energy sources such as hydroelectric
power that feed into these HVAC systems. Knowing the unique and growing importance of
water, a new index, Total Water Impact (TWI) is presented, which allows a holistic comparison
of the impact of water use on water, air and evaporative condensation climate systems.
