1. EEA Workshop, 16 & 17 June 2011 Economy wide application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators EEA - Water Resource Efficiency Workshop Cor Graveland Dutch experience with Water indicators derived from Water statistics and Accounts'.

2. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 1 Outline Introduction Dutch Water Accounts Physical and Economic Account Work in progress on Water accounts in NL Water resource Indicators Questions / Discussion

3. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 2 Dutch water accounts Part of environmental accounts Definitions of and input from national accounts Definitions follow SEEA-water (and IRWS) Build upon water statistics Compiled for National Water Service Used for EU-WFD reporting Since 2002, time series from 1995-2008 (1990-2009) With Water statistics: EEA SOER, data per RB ES, Regional Environment Questionnaire (RB)

4. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 3 Structure water accounts 1.Physical water account (m 3 ) 2.Emission account (kg) 3.Economic account (€) 4.1,2,3 integrated in NAMWA (National Accounting Matrix including Water Accounts)

5. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 4 Physical water account Supply and use of water (products) in the Dutch economy in m 3 Use: tap water, groundwater, surface water (other water) Abstraction: surface water, groundwater Resident principle Distributed over 58 industries and households Data sources: environmental reports (PRT-Register), data from water companies and detailed information from LEI Connect to monetary water data in NA Time series 2003-2008 (historic figures 1990-2001)

6. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 5 Physical water account ((Dutch water accounts (2) )) Scale: National and (sub-)River basins (pilot project 2009-2010)

7. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 6 Water Accounts LEI - FADN Physical water account, compilation Method from 2003 onwards, sources: National Accounts - Use and supply - Inform water prices - Labour Accounts AERs, An. Env. Reports VEWIN, Assoc of Water companies Tap water statistics - Total drinking water and use by households ‘Water statistics’ Tax authorities Groundwater- Registers Provinces / District w board FSS

9. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 8 Work / projects on Water accounts in NL 1.1996: Pilot: first experimental NAMWA 2.2002, 2003-2005: Extensions of original NAMWA further extension: addition of more pollutants, more detail for river basins 3.2006: Pilot project ‘Dutch Water flow Accounts 4.2007-2008: IO-analyses, decomposition analyses 5.2009-2010: Water abstraction and –use at 7 River Basins (Baas & Graveland) 6.2010-2011: ES/EFTA: NAMEA Task Force on Water Accounts

10. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 9 Work / projects on Water accounts in NL 6.2011: Aim to compile full Water balance / 6.2011: Aim to compile full Water balance / water asset accounts for national territory 7.2010-2011: TF on RUMEA incl. water. Aim to test CRUMA on Resource Management Activities (& R.Use) 8.2011 – 2013(..) CREEA-project: Refine and elaborate economic and environmental accounting incl. water 9.2011: Contribute to OECD green growth indicators incl water 10.Future plans: Composition of indicatorsComposition of indicators Doing environmental - Economic AnalysesDoing environmental - Economic Analyses Perform water footprint / virtual water workPerform water footprint / virtual water work What in regular production?What in regular production?

11. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 10 Use of Dutch water accounts 1.Publication on environmental accounts 2.Water framework directive (WS) 3.Water – Economic modelling 4.Input-output analyses 5.Research (scientific and policy)

12. Dutch application of Water use and Resource Efficiency indicators 11 Main water resource indicators Total (fresh) water abstraction Total water use Water use (and extraction) by industry (NACE) and households Water use intensity (m 3 /euro VA) Intensity of water use by branches of industry Trend of use over time River basin data Production costs of water services Cost recovery Total water consumption (requires agreed definition)

Share of groundwater for production tap water by PWS Water footprints (blue-green-grey) / virtual water Share of ‘other water’ RUMEA indicators Fresh water resources available Value of water (ecosystem services) Temporal variation in use and supply Share of area irrigated vs non-irrigated (rain fed) (by sub sector) Trend ground water abstraction Fresh water abstraction per capita (trend) Percentage leakage in water supply system Water consumption (requires agreed definition) ?
