Saving water directly leads to saving electricity and overall energy.
The article explains that tap water production and distribution in Bangkok, Nonthaburi, and Samut Prakan consume significant electricity and fuel. This process involves multiple stages from treatment to delivery through over 42,190 kilometers of pipelines.
Conserving water directly reduces the need for water production, thereby decreasing electricity and fuel consumption, and ultimately lowering greenhouse gas emissions for urban sustainability.
