Field-Validated, Grid-Interactive Irrigation for Energy-Water Resilience in Puerto Rico's Agricultural Experimental Stations

Puerto Rico's irrigation infrastructure depends primarily on electrically powered pumping and distribution systems, making agricultural water delivery highly vulnerable to grid instability and frequent outages. This white paper proposes the development and validation of grid-inter...

Dynamic Population Mapping to Advance Energy-Water Resilience

Dynamic population mapping, combined with household-level energy and water demand profiling, enables precise, actionable forecasting and resilience planning for U.S. energy-water systems under variable population and climate conditions. Energy and water systems face growing stres...

Accelerating the Acquisition of Irrigation Modernization Benefits

Accelerating the modernization of off-farm irrigation water delivery infrastructure can hasten the acquisition of many energy-water benefits: water and energy conservation, energy generation and grid reliability, and additional water conservation and increased agricultural yields ...

Building Resilient Energy-Water Systems: Integrated Modeling, Scenario Selection, and Near-Term Decision Support

U.S. energy and water systems are increasingly interdependent, often leading to cascading and compounding system failures when faced with acute and chronic hazards. Such stressors propagate across multiple spatial scales, typically starting with changing earth system dynamics (for...
