Abstract

Water and energy are two essential resources for our future since these two resources are strongly interconnected. The identification of the future scenarios and the evaluation of the possible impact on the water sector due the production of electricity are essential actions to be performed in order to obtain a picture of possible developments that could affect the national and the international energy scenarios.
