Energy-water nexus: the business case against coal [1]

This study by Vasudha Foundation has created a comprehensive mapping of all existing and proposed coal fired power plants on water related parameters. It monitors the generation of coal based thermal power plants in river basins, that are affected by water scarcity and reviews how the power generation is impacted due to this. The research also observes how for the purpose of securing power generation in water scarce basins, other uses of water are compromised.
