Strategic Roadmap Project for the Energy Water Nexus Jeff Anthony Midwest Energy Research Consortium April 13,

Overview of Project Project –Will define how the Midwest Region can become a leader in Energy Water Nexus. –Critical deliverables will include Market size and growth projections, customer value-based segmentation, SWOT and Action Plans Regional Benefits – Establishes a working relationship between M-WERC, The Water Council and their members/stakeholders –Develops a regional platform for soliciting potential Institutes, Grants and Other Sponsored Collaboration M-WERC &TWC Member Benefits –Ability to Participate in Workshops and Connect with New EWN Network being established by this project –Access to Workshop Materials, Research, Analysis and Final Report 2 Confidential Information: May Not Be Shared Without Express Written Permission of M-WERC

The Energy Water Cycle Water Required for Fuel Production Water Required for Power Generation Water Savings Opportunity From Energy Production Energy Required for Water Extraction Energy Required for Water Purification and Distribution Energy Savings Opportunity from Water Extraction and Distribution 4 Eliminate Overlap in Water & Energy Cycles Reduce Water Consumption Reduce Energy Consumpt ion

EWN Market Analysis U.S. and Global Focus – industry growth Market Data Starts with 2015 baseline –2025 forecast –Water flow and energy flow impact of categories –Growth Drivers / Market Opportunities Leverages other organizations that focus on EWN, Including: Water Environment Research Foundation American Water Works Association Argonne Labs Sandia Labs LLNL 5 IUCRC/ M-WERC Universities Union of Concerned Scientists NETL/PNNL DOE Water-Energy Tech Team US EPA

EWN Market Segments 6 EXAMPLE DISCUSSION ON FRIDAY Data CategoryMain SegmentsExplanation Energy CycleFuel Production Energy Production Market For Equipment and Services Water Consumption of segments Water CycleWater Extraction and Conveyance Water Treatment and Distribution Market For Equipment and Services Energy Consumption of segments Improvement Opportunity for Segments Process Efficiency Improvement Process improvements; Energy Cycle Process Improvements: Water Cycle Energy Cycle improvement to reduce water consumption Water Cycle improvement Reduce Electric Demand and Peak Charges Energy Efficiency Building System Integration Load Reduction and Control through Self Generation Building System Retrofit Building Systems Informatics Largest Segments for energy efficiency Industry Market is funded by Utility Commissioners Water Efficiency Low Flow Fixtures and Appliances Irrigation Industry Low Flow plumbing fixtures, building management controls Irrigation Water efficiency We have identified 5 major EWN market segments

Cross-Cutting Opportunities Cross-Cutting Opportunities are product/technology platforms that are used in each of the identified Market Segments to reduce energy or water use, or both.  AC Drives  Coatings  Sensors  Advanced membranes and filtration  Waste water treatment chemistry improvements  Advanced controls  Renewable energy products (distributed energy, inverters, meters, etc.) 7 Total Market in 2025 Approaching $600 Billion

Next Steps 1.Prioritize Action Planning focus and communicate to responsible committees 2.Integrate feedback from participants in workshop #4 3.Joint M-WERC/Water Council Update - May 12 th 4.Integrate direction from The Water Council leadership and M-WERC leadership after May 12 th 5.Final Steering Committee Meeting - Late May 6.Final Readout & Workshop - July 7.Final Report Published - August 8
