A Water Resource Consumption Control Method for Energy Development Bases Based on IoT Technology and Energy–Water Correlation Law

Abstract

Abstract To achieve the rational development and utilization of water resources in energy development bases and sustainable economic and social development, research is conducted on the control method of water resource consumption in energy development bases based on the law of energy–water correlation. Using Internet of Things technology to collect water resource consumption data from energy development bases, based on the results of data collection, taking Shanxi Coal Development Base as the research area, based on the objective relationship between energy and water, a multiregion input–output model and linear programming model are established, with objective functions and constraints set to achieve water resource consumption control in energy development bases. Under the dual constraint scenario of energy con-servation and water conservation, the optimization effect of the industrial structure of the water resource carrying capacity level in the research area is explored. The outcomes show that the water resource in the research area can bear 1,949.58 billion Yuan for 22.0336 million people. The water resources holding capacity is at the general level. Based on the limitations of energy consumption, raising the share of the mining sector and decreasing the share of the industrial and commercial service sectors can minimize the overall consumption of energy and water resources while ensuring the growth of the local economy. Reducing the extent of agricultural expansion supports both water conservation and regional economic growth because water resource consumption is constrained. A clear difference in the production and utilization effect of energy resource per unit will result from the direction difference in structural adjustment of the mining industry, which is based on the dual restrictions of energy–water resource.
