dc.description.abstract	The water end-use segment (WES), consisting of activities that utilize water in homes and buildings, has been identified as a major component of energy use in the urban water supply system. In this paper, an analytical framework is presented which can be used at the planning stages of new urban developments to assess future building-level water demands and associated energy requirements. The framework is applied to Masdar City, a new urban area in the United Arab Emirates, which has been targeted in its design to be a future zero-carbon and zero-waste city. Results show that the energy intensity (in electric kWh) in WES for Masdar City may range from 2.6 to
