Karnataka Municipal Water Energy Efficiency Project

Summary of Project (a) Activities of the project: The project will replace old pumps with more efficient models, properly-size the impellers of key pumps, and switch off key transformers when not needed. (b) Technology to be employed: See Above (c) How emissions reductions will result from the project: Emissions reductions will take place because less electricity will be required to provide the same amount of water to consumers in the five cities. With less electricity consumed, fewer greenhouse gas emissions will be emitted, especially in Karnataka where most electricity is generated by coal-fired power plants. (d) Estimated useful life of the project: 15 years (e) Location of the project: Karnataka, India - Cities of Mysore, Bellary, Hubli/Dharwad, Belguam, Gulburga and Mangalore (f) Boundaries of the project: The project boundary will extend from the point of water intake to the system in each city, including all pumping stations and treatment plants to the delivery point for the consumer. Supplemental pumps, booster stations, and other sources of power consumption must be included in both the baseline and the project case. Ms. Janis Bernstein took over the task leadership of this task in ........, 2011.
