The water industry is the fourth most energy intensive sector in the Atlantic Area, responsible for significant contributions to climate change and reductions in the competitiveness due to the associated costs, but with the potential to generate local renewable energy in water network infrastructure. At present significant potential exists to save energy, costs and environmental impacts in Atlantic Area water networks, but technological, institutional and social barriers prevent the exploitation of this resource. The REDAWN project will develop technology and policy, and raise awareness to overcome these barriers, improving the energy efficiency of water suppliers and users in the region. The aim of this project is to improve the energy efficiency of water networks through the installation of innovative micro-hydropower technology. This technology will recover wasted energy in existing pipe networks across irrigation, public water supply, process industry, and waste-water network settings. REDAWN will develop an adequate institutional, social and technological environment to foster greater resource efficiency in water networks, including: • Completion of an energy recovery resource assessment in water networks in the Atlantic Area; • Completion of an economic/environmental impact assessment of this technology on the region; • Development of design guidelines and support tools for hydropower energy recovery in drinking water, waste water, irrigation and process industry sectors; • Development of policy and institutional support tools to increase the implementation of energy recovery projects; • Quantification of the societal impacts of hydropower energy recovery in water networks; • Widespread dissemination and promotion of energy efficiency in AA water networks.
