By establishing a specific public-private partnership model (PPP) the water sector can use the renewable potential of the amounts and quality of water and manage its water resources to gain indirect, induced and direct supply that may impact the private energy efficiency and that meets ever growing demand of the energy sector, that is their supply in the energy market. Today's conditions under which the water sector is functioning and the attitude towards energy demands need to be changed by establishing a relationship between the public and the private domains in accordance with the principles and requirements that apply on PPP and under conditions that are based on the national and EU legislation.
