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.
Marine Energy-Seawater Intersection for Hydrogen Production
The focal area is about the energy-water intersections for high-value fuel production. The main challenge is the poor stability of anode in natural seawater electrolysis for hydrogen production, and we propose a fabrication of novel electrode overcome this challenge. The success m...
