摘要

The energy supply chains operating beyond a region's jurisdiction can exert pressure on the availability of water resources in the local area. In China, however, there is a lack of transboundary assessments that investigate the effects of energy consumption on water stress within and across river basins. In this study, we therefore investigate transboundary impacts on scarce water resources that are induced by energy demands (i.e., electricity, petroleum, coal mining, oil and gas extraction, and gas production). We develop a bottom-up high spatial resolution water inventory and link it to a 2017 multiregional input-output (MRIO) table of China to analyze supply chain scarce water use at provincial and river basin levels. We find that the energy-driven water footprint accounts for 21.6% of national water usage, of which 35.7% is scarce water. Nonelectric power energy sectors contribute to around half of the nation's scarce water transfer. We identify three sets of catchments whose water resources are stressed by energy demand, i.e., (a) from the northern Hai River Basin to the eastern part of the Yellow River Basin and the Huai River Basin, (b) the northern area of the Northwest Rivers, and (c) the developed coastal city clusters in the Yangtze River Basin and the Pearl River Basin. We then evaluate the impacts of eight mitigation options, which may potentially shift around half of the moderate- or high-stress areas in the Hai River Basin and the Northwest Rivers to low to moderate (or even low) stress. We highlight the need for transboundary collaboration to sustain water-constrained energy demand and to develop targeted measures to mitigate stress on water resources within a river basin.
