A Probabilistic Framework for Uncovering Water-Energy Infrastructure Dependencies and Assessing Systemic Consequences
The coupling of water and energy systems is critical for ensuring resilient infrastructure, particularly as water plays an essential role in the safe and reliable operation of energy sources. The dependency on water becomes increasingly complex when energy systems are integrated w...

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.
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...

Energy-Water Resilience through Underground Pumped Storage Hydropower (UPSH): Integrating Water Infrastructure for Enhanced Energy and Water Security
This white paper provides an overview of Underground Pumped Storage Hydropower (UPSH), a concept that addresses the intersection of water for energy and energy-water topics by utilizing subsurface formations for energy storage, leveraging excess surface water, treated wastewater, ...
Atkinson, T., Acharya, M., Russell, G., Colldeweih, R., Saulsbury, B., Reese, S., Mosier, T., and Schmidt, H.
Accelerating the Acquisition of Irrigation Modernization Benefits
Accelerating the modernization of off-farm irrigation water delivery infrastructure can hasten the acquisition of many energy-water benefits: water and energy conservation, energy generation and grid reliability, and additional water conservation and increased agricultural yields ...
Jorgensen, J., Saulsbury, B., Cafferty, K., Golden, B., Kueny, K., Hou, H., and Niazi, H.
Mitigating Wildfire-Driven Hydrological Impacts on Energy Generation
Following a wildfire, increased sedimentation and altered flow regimes can disrupt water quantity and quality for years, impacting water users (e.g., municipal, industrial, agricultural) and undermining energy reliability, efficiency, and infrastructure longevity. Upstream restora...

Reliable Water Resources for Resilient Next-Generation Geothermal Energy
This white paper focuses on expanding reclaimed wastewater for geothermal water management.
Challenges include rapid growth to 5 GW, rising demand for water in water-scarce regions. High volumes for drilling, stimulation, cooling, and reclaimed water infrastructure limits. High ...
Wu, M.
High-Rate Manufacturing of Corrosion Resistant Composite Piping for Water-Energy Infrastructure Resilience
The work focuses on rapid and cost-efficient manufacturing of composite piping for hydropower, waste-water infrastructure and data center thermal management offering extended service life and minimal inspection-maintenance requirement under corrosive and high temperature environme...
Saha, S., Kim, P., Kumar, V., Spencer, R., and Hassen, A.
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.
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...
