Solar Power - Utah Water & Electricity Do Mix: Net Zero Water - Net Zero Energy

A better Water Policy is a better Energy Policy -

Utah's Silicon Slopes need every house in Utah should produce enough electricity for itself and 2 electric cars (Net-Zero Energy) saving enough as much water as it uses (Net-Zero Water) . . . making a vibrant Utah.

Power Plants withdrawal more fresh water than farms.

Depending on the Power Plant, it takes 11 to 27 gallons to generate a kilowatt (KWh) - A monthly $200 power bill is about 1,600 KWh representing 17,000 to 43,000 gallons of water.

Who knew the water used to generate electricity for a house can be more than the water used by the house (indoor and outdoor use combined)?

“Who knew that, besides adding to the monthly electric bill, keeping a single 60-watt light bulb lit for 12 hours uses as much as 60 liters of water?” - Union of Concerned Scientists. May 21, 2016
