Abstract
The objective of this paper is to identify and explore innovative funding and governance mechanisms that can be used to support the integration of new distributed water infrastructure, practices, and technologies. To accomplish this, we looked outside of the water sector to explore financing tools and techniques that have been used by the electricity sector to implement distributed solutions. Distributed energy resources encompass a wide range of technologies and practices at various scales. Here, we investigate two: renewable generation and electricity DSM practices.
