dc.description.abstract | Water availability is constraining Mongolia's development as energy facilities, mining operations, agriculture, and urban residents compete for scarce water resources. This knowledge product examines the water–energy nexus in Mongolia and the stress factors of urbanization and mining. The water–energy nexus is the interdependency between water systems and energy systems. Water systems need energy for pumping, water treatment, wastewater treatment, transport and distribution, end use, and water system development. Energy production requires water for primary extraction and mining; fuel production (e.g., hydrogen, ethanol, and biofuels); thermal electric cooling; hydropower; and emission control. | |
