2 Integrated Resource Management (Water / / Food Security / WEF ) in Asian Cities: 1 st Phase nd Phase

3 Rationale Demand for fresh water, energy and food will rise between 40-50% by 2030 Security of supply in one sector is inextricably linked to security of supply in each of the other two sectors.

5 approach highlights: the interdependencies between water, energy and food security the synergies and competing uses of water, land and energy-related resources. a fundamental shift, from a sectoral to a cross-sectoral, integrated approach the Nexus approach challenges existing structures, sector policies and procedures. The three "supply securities" water, energy and food to be protected and used in a balanced manner. * farmer.gov.in ** ecobrick.in Legend Major wheat producing states* Major rice producing states Large scale brick production**

7 Water and energy interconnected and water are interlinked: For nearly all types of energy production (coal, geothermal, hydro, oil and gas, nuclear) huge amounts of water are required; On average 15% of the world s total water withdrawals are used for energy production; is the dominant cost factor in the provision of water and wastewater services (extracting and conveying water, treating water, distributing water, using water and collecting and treating wastewater); can account for up to 30% of total operating costs of water and waste water utilities. Robert C. Brears is the author of Urban Water Security (Wiley)

11 Accomplishments and Highlights Nexus Initiatives (infrastructure projects) Elaboration of more than 30 Nexus Initiatives (infrastructure project studies quick and dirty ) amounting to more than USD 300 million CAPEX (from small to big) OPEX calculated and discussed as well Finance mobilized or in process for 13 Nexus Initiatives (Da Nang, Korat, Chiangmai, Binhai, Rajkot, Santa Rosa, Ulaanbaatar, Tanjungpinang) 5 Nexus Projects implemented (Chiangmai, Korat, Naga City, BISCAST)

12 National-local dialogues (vertical cooperation) Intercommunal cooperation (horizontal cooperation, clustering ) GIZ as Facilitator Peer-to-peer learning (south south cooperation) Regional experience sharing workshops (once a year) Concentration on hard-ware and software Innovative technological solutions Standards Enabling framework conditions Tariffs and mandates Accomplishments and Highlights New formats of communication & cooperation

13 What remains to be done Introduction and application of Nexus Checklist for infrastructure projects Stronger inclusion of provincial and national level Anchoring of Nexus Approach into provincial and national structures Integration of Nexus approach as well as International Agendas into existing national policies (Green Growth Strategies, Sufficiency Economy, Smart City Concept, etc.) Institutionalizing Urban Nexus Training Enhanced inclusion of private sector Elaboration of functioning business models for utilities (PPP) Promotion of decentralization and subsidiarity with regard to governance and infrastructure development (empowerment of cities) Enforced inclusion of academia (twinning of universities to develop green infrastructure and synergies between infrastructure sectors)
