The demand for water-energy (WE) should be addressed with their sustainable supply in the long-term planning. The total energy demand was estimated to be around 14,000000 and 53,000000 MWh for 2030 and 2050 years respectively. These years' predicted water demand was 0.4 and 0.7 billion-cubic-meter. Based on the estimated energy and water demand, sustainable supply through WE management were determined. In 2030 and 2050 the water supply-demand balance index is around 1, showed water demand will be met for respective years, whereas the energy supply-balance after the intervention become around 0.9 and 0.7. The study results clearly predicted future WE demand of Addis Ababa city and have been put their quantified supply suggestion.
在长期规划中,应通过水 - 能源(WE)的可持续供应来满足其需求。预计到2030年和2050年,总能源需求分别约为14000000兆瓦时和53000000兆瓦时。这两年预测的需水量分别为0.4亿立方米和0.7亿立方米。基于估计的能源和水需求,确定了通过水 - 能源管理实现的可持续供应。2030年和2050年的供水 - 需求平衡指数约为1,表明各年份的用水需求将得到满足,而干预后的能源供应平衡分别约为0.9和0.7。研究结果清楚地预测了亚的斯亚贝巴市未来的水 - 能源需求,并提出了其量化的供应建议。
