Evaluation of the Jinan City Water Ecological Development Implementation Plan and Recommendations for Improvement

RAND evaluated potential effects of uncertain projections of demand and climate change on the ability of the Jinan Municipal Water Resources Bureau to meet its long-term water resources goals. This document describes RAND’s approach and results, including development of a mathematical simulation model of the Jinan water supply system and analysis of the system’s performance if new strategies and investments were to be implemented.
