摘要

Focusing on investor owned utilities, this paper discusses a number of the disincentives and incentives for water conservation, and presents several recommendations for utilities and public service commissions to create conditions more conducive to water conservation. Disincentives include revenue shortfalls, more frequent rate increases, and changes in customer demand. Incentives include revenue stabilization account, or an account to compensate utilities for excess or shortages of revenues resulting from reduced water demand; shared savings, which allow utility and customer to share the economic savings that are realized in pursuing demand management rather than supply augmentation; returns on conservation investments, and environmental asset preservation, or the preservation of natural resources. A case study of Sun City, Arizona, rate structure is given as an example of a win-win situation for utility and customer. The author gives 10 specific suggestions for making water conservation more attractive to investor owned utilities; five suggestions are for the utility, five for regulatory authorities. 本文以投资者拥有的公用事业为重点，讨论了节水的一些抑制因素和激励措施，并为公用事业和公共服务委员会提出了一些建议，以创造更有利于节水的条件。抑制因素包括收入不足、更频繁的加息以及客户需求的变化。激励措施包括收入稳定账户，或补偿公用事业公司因水需求减少而产生的收入过剩或短缺的账户；共享节约，使公用事业公司和客户能够共享在追求需求管理而不是增加供应时实现的经济节约；保护投资、环境资产保护或自然资源保护的回报。以亚利桑那州太阳城的费率结构为例，说明了公用事业和客户的双赢局面。作者给出了10条具体建议，使节水对投资者拥有的公用事业更具吸引力；五条建议针对公用事业公司，五条建议针对监管机构。展开▼
