Abstract

The water market is a new window for consumption and demand management. This market is a place where new water demands are met and natural and legal persons with a license to withdraw from underground water resources through saving or increasing water efficiency can enter a part of their water rights into the water market through a mechanism. Industries and mines or farmers who need surplus water should buy this water right and transfer it to their well or transport it to the place of consumption through a tanker.
