A METHODOLOGY TO ESTIMATE WATER DEMAND FOR THERMAL POWER PLANTS IN DATA-SCARCE REGIONS USING SATELLITE IMAGES
This technical note by the World Resources Institute proposes a three-step methodology to estimate water withdrawal and consumption for thermal power plants in data-scarce regions. The approach integrates the visual identification of cooling and fuel types via satellite imagery with empirical water-use factors. When tested against 200 U.S. power plants, the method demonstrated high precision in identifying technology and fuel types, though it faced more challenges in accurately estimating water demand for specific cooling systems.
