Looking at the Past to Understand the Present and Future of Urban Water–Energy Nexus

Fontenelle, Ana Luiza LU orcid ; Peyerl, Drielli and Hidalgo, Ieda Geriberto (2022) In Advances in Science, Technology and Innovation p.85-88
Abstract

Concerns about water and energy security have enhanced the water–energy nexus studies. However, even being well explored, some crucial aspects lack further analyses, such as the historical background of the relationship between the resources. This kind of analysis provides an in-depth understanding of the current situation and future perspectives and must, therefore, be included in WEN investigations. Based on this motivation, the present article analyzed the biggest Latin American city, São Paulo, Brazil. We linked the ongoing water crisis in the region to the jeopardizing of the energy sector at the beginning of the electrification process. Besides illustrating the influence of the historical process on the present events, this brief... (More)

Concerns about water and energy security have enhanced the water–energy nexus studies. However, even being well explored, some crucial aspects lack further analyses, such as the historical background of the relationship between the resources. This kind of analysis provides an in-depth understanding of the current situation and future perspectives and must, therefore, be included in WEN investigations. Based on this motivation, the present article analyzed the biggest Latin American city, São Paulo, Brazil. We linked the ongoing water crisis in the region to the jeopardizing of the energy sector at the beginning of the electrification process. Besides illustrating the influence of the historical process on the present events, this brief article aimed to urge the water–energy nexus researchers to include other aspects in their analysis.
