| Title | Innovations for Hydropower and Other Renewables: Potential Benefits to the Energy-Water Nexus |
| Creator | Sale, Michael J. |
| Description | Hydropower is the largest energy user of water in the U.S., although most of that water use is not consumptive. In 1995, USGS estimated that hydropower annual water uses was 3,160,000 million gallons per day, or about 16 times more than what is used for thermoelectric cooling.
