Water shortage is a nation wide problem facing Australian industries. The project will directly benefit the Victorian power industry through water saving. If the new proposed hybrid cooling system concept is proved to be practically feasible, it will put the Australian power industry in a strong competitive position in terms of its efficiencies and waste heat recovery technology. Lowering the temperature of water into the cooling tower by 2 degree, by using the hybrid cooling system, it would save over 17,500,000 tons of makeup water per year for the Victorian power industry alone. At the same time, the waste heat recovered by the heat pump can be fed back to the power generation cycle.

水资源短缺是澳大利亚工业面临的一个全国性问题。该项目将通过节约用水直接使维多利亚州的电力工业受益。如果新提出的混合冷却系统概念被证明是切实可行的，它将使澳大利亚电力行业在效率和废热回收技术方面处于强有力的竞争地位。通过使用混合冷却系统，将进入冷却塔的水温降低2度，仅维多利亚州的电力行业每年就可节省超过17，500，000吨的补给水。同时，热泵回收的废热可以反馈到发电循环中。
