Assessing urban water demand-side management policies before their implementation
In the context of climate change and increasing water scarcity, adopting water demand-side management (DSM) policies has become necessary. This study advocates for utilising agent-based modelling (ABM) as a robust simulation tool to assess the impact of nonprice (nudges) and price (changes in increasing block tariff) measures on urban water use. Overcoming challenges posed by insufficient high-quality data, the research integrates four sociocogni…
Agent-based modelling to simulate the socio-economic effects of implementing time-of-use tariffs for domestic water
Splitting Urban Waters
The current literature on remunicipalisation is focused either on theoretical concepts (e.g. right to the city, commons, return of the political) or on the “insurgent” actors involved in this process, overlooking the counter‐politicisation of the economic agents and the resulting struggles for power and legitimation. This paper examines, by means of an interpretative qualitative methodology and by critically engaging with Ernesto Laclau’s approac…
Modelling Contingent Technology Adoption in Farming Irrigation Communities
Of all the uses of water, agriculture is the one that requires the greatest proportion of resources worldwide. Consequently, it is a salient subject for environmental policy-making, and adoption of modern irrigation systems is a key means to improve water use e iciency. In this paper we present an agent-based model of the adoption process -known as "modernisation" -of a community constituted by farmer agents. The phenomenon is approached as a con…
