A study by Xylem and Global Water Intelligence forecasts a 129% increase in global water demand by 2050, driven primarily by sectors like power generation and data centers, which could require an additional 30 trillion liters annually. The report highlights the importance of water reuse and digital infrastructure investments to address this demand while minimizing industrial-community conflicts. It calls for coordinated efforts and partnerships to enhance water supply and reliability, particularly in high water stress areas.
