Abstract : How should we value and price water? We need values to make decisions and set prices that customers pay. However\, in urban settings water there&rsquo\;s no market to determine the price. There are some challenging considerations. Supply &ndash\; and to an extent demand &ndash\; is uncertain but we can store water cheaply in large quantities and large infrastructure is typically required to increase capacity. This presentation will examine the issues and cover topics relevant for a range of infrastructure industries.
