Transfer of Environmentally Sound Transfer of Environmentally Sound Technologies - Technologies - TEST MethodologyTEST Methodology
Objective: Support sound management of resources use at priority industrial hot spots, to minimize use of resources and maximize productivity through the demonstration of best practices, application of clean technologies, and capacity building.
The methodology demonstrates that industries can achieve economic benefits through the application of best environmental practices and resource efficiency.
TEST Global Application TEST Global Application
Context
The TEST integrated approach was developed by UNIDO in 2000, it was implemented in 5 countries in the Danube River Basin.
The TEST methodology aims to improve environmental management and competitiveness of companies (primarily SMEs) in developing countries and economies in transition.
TEST consists of five management tools aimed at changing practices in industries/companies in a comprehensive way in order to ensure the adoption of environmental practices.
The 5 Tools of TESTThe 5 Tools of TEST
Resource Efficiency and Cleaner Production (RECP)
Environmental Management Systems (EMS)
Environmental Management Accounting (EMA)

The Nexus between Water and Energy
“Energy production consumes significant amounts of water; providing water, in turn, consumes energy. In a world where water scarcity is a major and growing challenge, meeting future energy needs depends on water availability –and meeting water needs depends on wise energy policy decisions.” (World Policy Institute and EBG Capital, March 2011)
30
Energy needs water Energy production depends on water some 580 billion
cubic metres of freshwater are withdrawn for energy production every year (IEA, 2012)
Water is used for primary energy production as well as power generation esp. for cooling at thermal power plants
Extraction, transport and processing of fuels and irrigation to grow biomass feed-stock are also water-intensive
Key uses of water for primary production (IEA, 2012)
31
Water needs energy Energy is vital to providing freshwater needed to power
systems that collect, transport, distribute and treat water.
(US Department of Energy, 2006)
Decision-making at the Nexus: The Key Challenge for post-2015 Development Framework and SDGs
Energy decisions have a broad range of impacts on water, with consequences for business, security, environment, social equity and development.
Identifying these interrelationships presents opportunities for
policy makers, business leaders, investors, non-governmental organizations for informed policy and governance to address related problems and global challenges (e.g. climate change, food and energy security or eliminating poverty).

UNIDO Activities in Water Energy Nexus
UNIDO-IIASA Study on Water-Energy Nexus:
• Defining critical linkages between water and energy
• Exploring opportunities for informed policy and governance
• Examining the potential to pursue the Nexus in the SE4ALL Agenda
• Exploring options for capacity development and knowledge-sharing
