Annual Freshwater Withdrawals: Domestic: % of Total Freshwater Withdrawal
Annual Freshwater Withdrawals: Domestic: % of Total Freshwater Withdrawal data was reported at 34.722 % in 2021. This records a decrease from the previous number of 40.452 % for 2020. Annual Freshwater Withdrawals: Domestic: % of Total Freshwater Withdrawal data is updated yearly, averaging 27.764 % from Dec 1992 (Median) to 2021, with 30 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 40.452 % in 2020 and a record low of 22.380 % in 2005. Annual Freshwater Withdrawals: Domestic: % of Total Freshwater Withdrawal data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s El Salvador – Table SV.World Bank.WDI: Environmental: Water and Wastewater Management. Annual freshwater withdrawals refer to total water withdrawals, not counting evaporation losses from storage basins. Withdrawals also include water from desalination plants in countries where they are a significant source. Withdrawals can exceed 100 percent of total renewable resources where extraction from nonrenewable aquifers or desalination plants is considerable or where there is significant water reuse. Withdrawals for domestic uses include drinking water, municipal use or supply, and use for public services, commercial establishments, and homes. Data are for the most recent year available for 1987-2002.;Food and Agriculture Organization, AQUASTAT data.;Weighted average;

Withdrawals also include water from desalination plants in countries where they are a significant source. Withdrawals can exceed 100 percent of total renewable resources where extraction from nonrenewable aquifers or desalination plants is considerable or where there is significant water reuse. Withdrawals for agriculture and industry are total withdrawals for irrigation and livestock production and for direct industrial use (including withdrawals for cooling thermoelectric plants). Withdrawals for domestic uses include drinking water, municipal use or supply, and use for public services, commercial establishments, and homes.

This stayed constant from the previous number of 13.213 Ratio for 2020. Level of Water Stress: Freshwater Withdrawal As Proportion of Available Freshwater Resources data is updated yearly, averaging 13.213 Ratio from Dec 1992 (Median) to 2021, with 30 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 13.213 Ratio in 2021 and a record low of 4.547 Ratio in 1992. Level of Water Stress: Freshwater Withdrawal As Proportion of Available Freshwater Resources data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s El Salvador – Table SV.World Bank.WDI: Environmental: Water and Wastewater Management. The level of water stress: freshwater withdrawal as a proportion of available freshwater resources is the ratio between total freshwater withdrawn by all major sectors and total renewable freshwater resources, after taking into account environmental water requirements. Main sectors, as defined by ISIC standards, include agriculture; forestry and fishing; manufacturing; electricity industry; and services. This indicator is also known as water withdrawal intensity.;Food and Agriculture Organization, AQUASTAT data.;;
