Energy and water generation and delivery systems are inherently interconnected. With demand for energy growing, the energy sector is experiencing increasing competition for water. With increasing populationand changing environmental, socioeconomic, and demographic scenarios, new technology and investmentdecisions must be made for optimized and sustainable energy-water resource management. These decisionsrequire novel scientific insights into the complex interdependencies of energy-water infrastructures acrossmultiple space and time scales.On June 13, 2017 an Experts’ Meeting was convened for the purpose of informing the design of an integrateddata driven modeling, analysis, and visualization capability that can enable ecient local and regional decisionmakingregarding present and future energy-water infrastructure. This first multi-institute collaborativeEnergy-Water Nexus Knowledge Discovery Framework (EWN-KDF) will be informed by fundamentalscience and guided with strategic (federal) policy decisions in the service of ensuring national energyresilience.
