Enabling Energy-Water Resilience Through Testbeds for Scalable Atmospheric Water Harvesting Across Domestic, Building, and Manufacturing Applications
This white paper outlines a coordinated testbed and modeling framework to evaluate atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) as an energy?water resilience strategy across domestic, building, and manufacturing applications. By benchmarking real-world AWH performance against thermodynamic limits, the work identifies pathways to reduce energy intensity, leverage waste heat, and generate decision-grade data to accelerate near-term deployment.
