Six GHG Emission Reduction Measures in Water
• W-1 Water Use Efficiency
• W-2 Water Recycling
• W-3 Water System Energy Efficiency
• W-4 Reuse Urban Runoff
• W-5 Increase Renewable Energy Production
• W-6 Public Goods Charge for Water

Evaluation of GHG emission Reduction (Metric Ton CO2e/Yr.)
WUE Example 1:
Central Basin MWD
Low Flow Toilet Replacement
Water Savings: • 38 GPD per toilet;• 7600 GPD for 200 toilets;
Total Water Savings:
8.5 AF/Yr.

Low Flow Toliet Replacement Energy Savings: • Total Dynamic Head of GW: 331 ft (101 m, S. CA)• Volume of Water Saving: 10,493 Cubic-Meters• Pump Efficiency: 0.6• Additional Water Treatment Cost: 20%
• Energy Savings: 5.77 MWh (~ $ 700 / Yr.)• GHG Emission Reduction: 2.61 MTon CO2e/Yr.
WUE Example 1: Central Basin MWD
Example 2: Water Recycle
(IEUA, Chino Basin)Recycled water is used for landscape irrigationWater Saving: 13,167 AFY (Energy Intensity: 2,657 KWh/AF)Energy Saving: 34,985 MWh/Yr. (Nonbaseload Emission Rate: 0.452 MTCO2e/MWh)
CO2 Emission Reduction: 15,813 MTCO2e/Yr.This is like to idle 3,163 passenger cars off road(12,000 miles/yr., 20.8 gal/mile, 8.81 kg/gal of gasoline)(5 MTCO2e/car/year)
