Water Supply Overview• Processes
– Collection– Treatment– Distribution
• Energy Consumption: – Pumping 80%– Treatment 20%– New regulations for treatment may
change the mix slightly» Ozonation» Membrane Filtration» UV Disinfection
• Source Type– Surface Water
» More treatment energy» Less pumping energy
– Ground Water» Less treatment energy» More pumping energy

Community Fresh Water in the PNW• USGS: 80% of PNW Population served by Community Water Systems
• 56% is Surface Water*
• 43% is Ground Water*
• EPA: 4,570 community water systems in the 4 PNW states.• 240 plants serve 80% of population served by CWS’s
* By volume

An In-Depth Look at the Largest Supplier: Seattle Public Utilities
• Serves a retail population of nearly 650,000 (6% of PNW population)• Also wholesales water to water utilities serving a population of over
700,000 (6%)
• The next four slides are from Seattle Public Utilities…

Energy Savings Measures• VFD’s and low head loss valves• Distribution system pressure optimization (strategic use of booster
pumps)• Fix leaks in distribution system• Optimize filtration (pre-treat before filtering)• Pump efficiency optimization• Premium efficiency motors• Low pressure UV lamps versus med. pressure• High efficiency single stage blowers• Compressed air efficiency measures• Use of low friction linings or coatings in piping• Lighting

5th Plan
• Total Energy Use:– 117 aMW
• Technical Potential:– 29 aMW
• Economic Potential:– 25 aMW– 1.3 cents/kWh
• Assumptions:• 20% savings• Costs same as wastewater• O&M/NEB’s same as
wastewater

6th Plan (proposed): Energy Consumption
Data• Assuming:
• Groundwater = 1800 kWh/MG
• Surface Water = 1400 kWh/MG
• PNW Energy Use (2008)Groundwater: 72 aMWSurface Water: 73 aMW Total = 145 aMW
Water Source kWh/MGGroundwater 1,810Surface water (large plant) 1,404Surface water (small plant) 1,470
Water Source kWh/MGGroundwater 1,800Surface water 1,400
435 kWh/MG
EPRI (1996)

6th Plan Assumptions (proposed)
• Achievements Since 5th Plan– ETO
• 20 Projects• Savings = 0.8 aMW (at $6.7million)• Savings cost $0.92/kWh
• Energy use tracks with population increase• Energy savings = 15%– Very limited data: BacGen (2003) 7% to 23%
• Technical Potential: 27aMW• Cost: $0.92/kWh?• Measure Life: 10 years?
