Integrated Planning for Resilient Energy-, Infrastructure-, and Hydro-Scapes
The focus of this paper is nationally-comprehensive, hyper-granular assessment of future energy expansion opportunities and challenges, considering multi-dimensional risks and consequent implications of large infrastructure additions on surface water and groundwater, spanning from...
McCollum, D., Rathore, S., Liu, Y., and Parish, E.
Meeting Energy and Water Demands: Collocated Geothermal Solutions
This white paper focuses on strategies to optimize site and project-scale geothermal operations, including Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), Advanced Geothermal Systems (AGS), and hydrothermal systems, to address growing energy demands and dual challenges of water conservation an...

Harnessing water system flexibility for grid resilience
With new critical infrastructure that require uninterrupted power supplies (such as data centers that support the AI boom) and a rising share of intermittent generation sources on the grid, there is a growing need for flexibility in grid resources which can ramp up or down quickly...

GORMan: A framework for Governance, Ontologies, and Risk Management of scalable, cross-sector integration of secure energy-water infrastructure information
This white paper addresses the inherent challenges in applying data-driven approaches to integrated energy-water solutions across the US due to the lack of standardization in collection, storage, governance, management, curation and risk mitigation among data owners across scales...

Water-Energy-Economics: Leveraging Market Instruments for Building Resilience
Energy and water systems exist in an economic context that shapes their supply and use, which in turn shapes the macroeconomics of the country. A holistic energy-water-economics view is needed that links physical resource constraints, sectoral interdependencies, policy and managem...

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.
Semiconductor Industry Waste Valorization for Recovery of Gallium
This white paper discusses the critical intersection of energy and water resilience, focusing on advancing water reuse and reclamation technologies to address water scarcity, particularly in the semiconductor manufacturing industry. The paper emphasizes the importance of recoverin...

Accounting for Water-Energy Co-Benefits of Floating Photovoltaics (FPV)
Floating photovoltaic projects, as well as those that span over waterways (i.e. canopy), present potential technological and economic advantages over ground-mounted systems that have fueled rapid global growth in installed capacity in recent years. Aside from expanding generation,...
