Gaps Between Western U.S. Reservoir Inflows and Headwater Precipitation Timing, Amount, and Phase
Snowmelt from mountain headwater basins supplies approximately 80% of the runoff to reservoirs in the western United States (WUS), and is therefore a key component of western hydropower. Yet predicting runoff from hydrometeorological data in complex terrain (and its sensitivity to...

Unlocking Small-scale Hydropower using Water Infrastructure for National Energy Security
Reliable local energy generation and long-duration energy storage are critical to balancing peak demands and providing distributed emergency backup near both urban and rural populations. However, small-scale (< 10 MW) hydropower faces barriers, including siting, permitting, water ...

Material Science Driven Water Technology Innovation
The white paper explores multiple Energy-Water Resilience (EWR) topics, including water for energy, energy for water, and their intersections. It proposes low-cost, scalable water-based material processes to advance water technologies through materials innovation. The existing cha...

Standardized Siting and Risk Analysis Decision Support Mechanisms for Water-Intensive Industries
This paper focuses on water for cooling industrial energy generation loads and energy and water for cooling large process loads. A challenge is that siting any large facility with substantial water demands without understanding baseline conditions and assessing potential multi-sec...

Enabling Energy-Water Resilience Through Testbeds for Scalable Atmospheric Water Harvesting Across Domestic, Building, and Manufacturing Applications
This white paper outlines a coordinated testbed and modeling framework to evaluate atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) as an energy?water resilience strategy across domestic, building, and manufacturing applications. By benchmarking real-world AWH performance against thermodynamic ...
