Detail

RAPID aims to identify cross-company strategic water resource options that help meet water demands over the next 5–15 years and beyond. This project builds on and uses a tool able to identify efficient mixes of future supply and transfer options nationally using existing water company data. A supply-demand model for England and Wales provides a top-down view of how different independent water supply areas called water resource zones (WRZs) could work together in England and Wales to cost effectively meet estimated annual water demands.
