Water System Modernization using Advanced and Resilient Technologies (WaterSMART)
This white paper presents a comprehensive vision for modernizing U.S. water and water-energy infrastructure through advanced, resilient, and energy-integrated technologies. It highlights the pressing challenges posed by aging treatment plants, distribution systems, and stormwater ...
DeNeale, S., Chavez, L., and Chu, A.
Reinforcement Learning for Water-Energy Infrastructure Resilience and Evolution
This white paper outlines a foundational AI-based framework for improving resilience across the energy-water nexus, with a focus on electric grid and water system interdependencies under hydrologic and weather extremes. The focal area spans both "water for energy" and "energy for ...
Jackson, N., and Rao, N.
State-of-the-Art MABR Technology for Energy-Efficient, Compact and Low N2O Emission Wastewater Solutions
The focal area of this white paper is advancing energy water resilience in wastewater treatment through the deployment of Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) technology.
The proposed effort advances MABR technology as a treatment intensification solution to address energy inef...

Unlocking the energy-water interdependency through bio-augmented treatment of produced water for agricultural re-use and aquifer recharge
The supply and demand for energy and water within the US is increasingly intertwined. Several examples of this include the large volumes of water consumed by hydraulic fracking, the reliance of energy-intensive groundwater pumping in agriculture, and the significant water and powe...
Solander, K., Patelli, P., Gonzalez-Esquer, R., Xu, C., Bower, C., and Kisekka, I.
Managing Systemic Interdependence within Energy-Water-Transportation Systems
This white paper discusses the complex interdependence between energy, water, and transportation (EWT) systems, which underpins critical infrastructure and supply chains. Failures in any of these systems can cause cascading disruptions across the others due to their tight integrat...

Integrated Energy-Water Data for Cross-Sector Resilience
Disjointed management of water and energy systems has created systemic vulnerabilities in the United States, particularly as aging infrastructure, population and industrial growth, and severe weather events strain both sectors. High-quality, standardized datasets like those provid...
Hodson, A., Stokes-Draut, J., Chini, C., Rao, P., and Semrod, K.
Integrated Water-Energy Resilience Research and Testbeds
Water availability increasingly constrains the reliability and flexibility of water-dependent energy systems, including hydropower, thermoelectric generation, and grid operations. Hydrologic extremes, shifting demand, aging infrastructure, and cross-sector pressures are intensifyi...
