Abstract

Developed an energy management decision support system (DSS) to help water utilities make better decisions for sustainable energy management. Designs the DSS to identify economic, environmental, and social issues and impacts (i.e., triple-bottom line approach) and necessary parameters and methods for analysis to evaluate energy management options. Published in 2011.

As of August 2023, the DSS web tool has been discontinued.

This study was originally funded in cooperation with WERF as project OWSO7C07 and was managed by Lauren Fillmore and Linda Reekie.
