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.
Integrated Water-Energy Management for Mining
This white paper focuses on the intersection of energy-water with the mining sector.
The challenges include that mining is a water and energy intensive industry, mining can impact surface water and groundwater, limited water quality sampling occurs at mine sites, and there are o...
Greco, T., King, J., Struck, S., Bell, B., Wiltse, N., Hoffman, J., Taguta, J., Cai, M., GreenNRRI, M., Post, S., and Paliewicz, C.
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...

Supporting adoption of advanced forecast informed reservoir operations tools to improve agricultural and municipal water and energy outcomes
Expanding the use of advanced forecast-informed reservoir operations tools can optimize or improve water delivery and storage for energy generation, irrigation, and municipal uses. Advanced forecast-informed data and tools are increasingly being integrated into large-scale reservo...

From Modeling to Testbeds: Taking an Expanded Look at Wastewater Reuse
The primary focus is on energy for water, considering the myriad tradeoffs influencing the adoption of wastewater reuse, particularly considering its energy intensity.
Wastewater reuse offers a compelling opportunity to concurrently tackle water scarcity and enhance energy effic...

Minimizing Costs and Risk for Rural Water Systems
Many rural and remote populations either lack access to treated water supplies or are served by water systems that are at risk from increasing contaminant concentrations, aging infrastructure, unreliable supplies, and/or groundwater depletion. Recent research has shown that these ...
Hendrickson, T., Rao, P., Stokes-Draut, J., Gonzalez, S., and Fiske, P.
High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) effects on Energy-Water resilience
Executive Order 13865 emphasizes the need to focus on critical infrastructure resilience to high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) effects, indicating that simulation of EMP effects on both energy and water systems need to be studied. The key technical challenges in assessing ...
Tabarez, J., Barnes, A., and Nelson, E.
Energy-Water System Resilience to Flooding
This white paper addresses the resilience challenges and opportunities within interdependent energy-water systems, particularly under the stress of flooding events. It describes how large-scale flood events impact these systems, posing risks such as operational constraints, infras...
McPherson, T., Giovando, J., Hou, H., Daniel, B., Bracken, C., Li, X., and Bixler, T.
Quantifying compound hazard risk to energy and water systems
The focal area is identification and quantification of the risk of combined (compound) hazards on water and energy systems and their interactions. The existing challenge is addressing risk and consequences to energy and water systems by compound hazards is an emerging area of stud...
Giovando, J., Chen, T., Fang, Y., Feng, S., McPherson, T., Regier, P., and Wang, T.
Increasing Robustness and Resilience of Water Delivery Infrastructure
This white paper outlines the need for a national testing capability for water treatment and delivery infrastructure to enhance energy-water resilience (EWR) and address existing knowledge and technology gaps. The vulnerability of water systems to contamination, physical compromis...
