The groundwater economy of South Asia: an assessment of size, significance and socio-ecological impacts (2007, background): “Since levying a price on groundwater itself may entail high transaction costs of collection, energy price can serve as a useful ‘surrogate’ (Scott and Shah 2004; Shah et al., 2004c).”
Energy Intensity of Agriculture and Food Systems (2011, background): “According to Scott & Shah (44) cheap energy has been a critical driver of increased groundwater use in agriculture.”
The water-energy-food security nexus through the lenses of the value chain and the Institutional Analysis and Development frameworks. (2015, background): “The groundwater boom has brought unparalleled economic growth but also important tensions in the energy sector, posing a dilemma to policy makers between preserving the benefits of water use and controlling its excesses (Scott and Shah, 2004).”
The Water-Energy-Food Nexus: Enhancing Adaptive Capacity to Complex Global Challenges (2015, methodology): “The electricity-for-water nexus was applied to Jordan by Scott et al. (2003) and extended to Mexico by Scott and Shah (2004) and Scott et al. (2004a, b) with particular attention to policy and legal dimensions that expanded the physicalresource conception of the nexus.”
