| Research Abstract |
As an information infrastructure to facilitate the integrated water policies for rapidly growing cities in developing countries in Asia, the project aimed at developing urban water accounting table first and then conducting water related policy studies with the tables. The water accounting tables have been constructed in Beijing during the period between 1987 and 2005. Based on several empirical studies with the tables, increase in water prices and policies to promote water savings coincided with industrial structure transformation leading to increase in commodities imports to Beijing. As a result, it is found that social benefits are increased due to decline of industrial water demand and decrease in wastewater treatment costs, even water demand in residential and commercial sectors are increased.
