As an extension of the�Blueprint for Action, a joint project of the Alliance for Water Efficiency (AWE) and American�Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE), the Alliance for Water Efficiency assembled a working group to explore ongoing and prospective research regarding the water-energy nexus. Of specific concern is the amount of water needed for and thus �embedded� in electric power generation and the amount of energy �embedded� in drinking water treatment and pumping and wastewater treatment and pumping. The work group meetings consist of presentations and discussions that help promote, track, and understand water and energy research.� Below is a list of past meetings that includes downloadable copies of the presentations,�a database of water and energy studies and resources, and the workgroup roster of participants.
