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...
Plaza, J., and Andrade, F.
Advancing Industrial Sector Water Management for Energy Recovery in Water Supply, In-Process, and Discharge Systems
This paper addresses both water-for-energy and energy-for-water by integrating hydropower generation to improve industrial water system resilience. Conduit hydropower is produced by capturing flowing water under pressure in closed-pipe systems and converting the energy into usable...
Bhandari, I., Billings, B., DeNeale, S., Chu, A., and Meira, K.
Advanced Manufacturing of Polymer Composites for Energy-Water Resilience and Infrastructure Modernization
This white paper addresses the intersection of energy and water systems through innovations in advanced polymer composites and convergent manufacturing to enhance national waterpower infrastructure resilience, reduce lifecycle energy and water intensity, and strengthen domestic ma...
Hassen, A.
Resilience By Design: Advanced Metrics and Comprehensive Methods for Energy-Water Systems Analysis
This white paper examines the connections between energy and water systems, highlighting the need for thorough resilience analyses and interdisciplinary metrics in these sectors. It addresses challenges stemming from the growing interdependence and uncertainty in decision-making d...
Valdez, R., Jackson, N., and Wachtel, A.
Marine-Source Integrated Heat Pump System for Remote Coastal and Island Communities
The white paper "Marine-Source Integrated Heat Pump (MS-IHP) System for Remote Coastal and Island Communities" focuses on the Water for Energy research area.
Roughly 3.8 million U.S. coastal homes still rely on fossil fuel heating, and 1.3 million use inefficient electric resist...

Monitoring, Planning, and Management of Water Quality and Quantity for Resilient Water and Energy Systems
Both resilient systems where water is used for energy production and energy is used for treatment and operation depend not only on the quantity of water, but also quality and environmental health. Addressing gaps in environmental health and infrastructure condition/capability data...
Hansen, C., DeRolph, C., Allen-Dumas, M., Griffiths, N., Matson, P., Pilla, R., Siddik, A., Stevenson, L., and Johnson, R.
Hydrotwin: an AI-based physics and optimization framework for improved water resource resilience in systems experiencing adverse events
This white paper focuses on water for energy.
As we move ahead into an uncertain future for water resource demand and supply, a massive challenge exists to optimize water systems to be resilient to a range of press/pulse extreme event states and conditions. Optimal decision-makin...
Bennett, K., Schwenk, J., and Garcia, M.
Revolutionizing Water-Energy Infrastructure Resilience through Distributed Sensing and Digital Twins
This white paper addresses the intersection of Water for Energy and Energy for Water, proposing foundational technology to enhance the resilience and operational longevity of critical national assets, including hydropower facilities and marine energy systems.
The core challenge i...
