Resumen
Descripción
This report presents the water and
climate adaptation plan (WATCAP) developed for the Sava
river basin (SRB) as result of a study undertaken by the
World Bank. The WATCAP is intended to help to bridge the gap
between the climate change predictions for the SRB and the
decision makers in current and planned water management
investment projects that will be affected by changing
climate trends. The purpose of the report is to: (i) assist
stakeholders and decision makers in assessing and planning
for the risks generated by climate change impacts on water
resources; (ii) provide a basis for future plans and studies
of adaptation to climate change impacts in the SRB; and
(iii) stimulate cooperation and debate across the basin
toward additional and more detailed studies on climate
change impacts at the regional and basin scale. The SRB is
projected to experience small increases in water use by the
public water supply, industry, energy, and agricultural and
irrigation sectors. However, it is widely expected that new
hydropower plants (HPPs) will be constructed in the near
future, making energy (primarily through hydropower) the
most important water use in the SRB.
