Feasibility analysis of large-scale stormwater re-use for urban developments in Canada

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Urban stormwater re-use is gaining acceptance in Canadian jurisdictions as a means to offset anticipated increases in potable water demand from urbanization and climate change. Counterpoint Engineering has recently begun to develop consulting services in large-scale water re-use and green urban infrastructure design. In the process of developing these new services, Counterpoint Engineering has identified a need to partner with Queen's University to determine if a net economic benefit can be achieved from potable water savings in large-scale stormwater re-use facilities in Canada. The new partnership between Counterpoint Engineering and Queen's University will examine the economic feasibility of large-scale stormwater re-use in Canada and enable Counterpoint Engineering to continue developing its high-value consulting services in green urban infrastructure so that it can export them to domestic and possibly international markets.
