Abstract

Scientific evaluation of the impact of human activities on water resources is a prerequisite for the sustainable use of water resources. Combined with the development status of China's thermal power generation industry, a water footprint accounting method for thermal power plants was constructed, and a typical gas-fired power generation company was used for empirical analysis. The results show that energy and material water footprints account for the largest proportion of the company's water footprint. Enhancing energy efficiency and selecting clean energy are the keys to reducing the water footprint of gas-fired power companies.
