Abstract

It is high time that state, local government, public institution, company and people should establish a new paradigm in order to overcome water shortage due to global population growth, urbanization and climate change etc. This means that we should establish strategies for water management in a dimension of securing state competitiveness of a dynamic force for new growth as well as prevention of disaster through integrated smart water management, turning away from passive defense strategy to water crisis. Smart Water Management that refers to implement intelligent water information systems by IT convergence is considered a new paradigm. Smart Water Grid (hereinafter “SWG”) is the core of this water management policy. In this paper, we try to study the Smart Water policy, especially SWG, and legislation development trends in major advanced countries such as U.S.A., EU, Singapore, Australia and Japan etc. In the conclusion, we suggest a proposal for structuring a legal framework of SWG in an era of climate change.
