越来越多地依赖需求方管理政策作为城市水消费管理工具，这在经济学家、供水公司管理人员、监管机构、消费者利益集团和决策者之间引发了大量辩论。反过来，这又促进了越来越多的文献，旨在提供价格和收入弹性的最佳做法估计，量化非价格水限制的影响，并衡量影响居民用水需求的非自由裁量环境因素的影响。本文提供了一个概括性的调查，在过去的25年里进行的经验居民用水需求分析。模型的规格和估计和分析的结果进行了讨论。
The increased reliance on demand-side management policies as an urban water consumption management tool has stimulated considerable debate among economists, water utility managers, regulators, consumer interest groups and policymakers. In turn, this has fostered an increasing volume of literature aimed at providing best-practice estimates of price and income elasticities, quantifying the impact of non-price water restrictions and gauging the impact of non-discretionary environmental factors affecting residential water demand. This paper provides a synoptic survey of empirical residential water demand analyses conducted in the last 25 years. Both model specification and estimation and the outcomes of the analyses are discussed.
