摘要:This paper aims to highlight some of the issues and challenges raised by implementing the most efficient approach for water pricing,to induce a sustainable water demand management. Therefore,we define the concept and utility of water demand management,as one objective of efficient water pricing. Next we briefly analyse some features of the water demand function and show some empirical evidence on the true correlation between the water pricing and the demand of water in Romania. We end with conclusions and some personal recommendations on the actual opportunity,prospects,and challenges of sustainable water pricing.
