Aquifer Storage as a Core Strategy for Energy-Water Resilience: Near and Long-Term Development Across U.S. Regions
This research area primarily addresses the "Energy for Water" focus area. Depleted aquifers pose serious economic liabilities if left as is, however, they are a core asset for long term water storage throughout the US. Current efforts to store surface water, while successful are s...

Water Energy Planning Strategies to meet Emerging Load from Data Centers
This white paper discusses the urgent need for innovative management of energy and water resources in the context of rapidly growing data centers, particularly as U.S. electricity demand is projected to increase by 35 to 40% by 2040 due to the rise of artificial intelligence (AI)....
Bhowmik, P., Cafferty, K., Klise, K., and Jackson, N.
Digital Twin and HIL Framework for Grid-Interactive Microgrids in Non-PRASA Aqueducts: Enhancing Energy-Water Nexus Resilience
This white paper addresses the energy for water focal area by developing and validating grid-interactive microgrids for aqueducts which operate outside the centralized Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority (non-PRASA). These aqueducts depend on electricity for pumping and treat...

Cross-sector Decision-making Support for Energy-Water Resilience
Cross-sector decision-making support has the potential to advance energy-water resilience across scales, geographies, and technologies. Research and development of structured frameworks, tools, and participatory processes can help to inform joint evaluation of trade-offs, align pr...
Arkema, K., Daly, M., Duffy, K., Gunn, C., Henderson, C., Hou, H., Johnston, K., Marten, B., Morrice, K., Nelson, L., Niazi, H., Shereda, A., Beck, A., Griffin, R., and Matson, P.
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 ...

Building Resilient Energy-Water Systems: Integrated Modeling, Scenario Selection, and Near-Term Decision Support
U.S. energy and water systems are increasingly interdependent, often leading to cascading and compounding system failures when faced with acute and chronic hazards. Such stressors propagate across multiple spatial scales, typically starting with changing earth system dynamics (for...
Rodriguez, L., Szinai, J., Stokes-Draut, J., Dwivedi, D., Ulrich, C., Holm, J., and Vahmani, P.
Energy-Water Resiliency for Drinking Water and Wastewater Treatment
This white paper focuses on water treatment operational flexibility, technoeconomic analyses, real-time modeling and control, modular systems, and resource recovery.
Challenges include municipal water and wastewater services are large energy users; underestimation of energy and w...
