Growing Limitations on Fresh Surface and Ground Water Availability
Little increase in surface water
storage capacity since 1980
Concerns over climate impacts
on surface water supplies
• Many major ground water
aquifers seeing reductions in
water quality and yield
( Based on USGS WSP-2250 1984 and Alley 2007)

U.S. National Laboratories Energy-Water Nexus Team
Joint 12 Laboratory effort that was initiated in 2004
A Report to Congress from DOE - January 2007
A Roadmapping effort and Five Pilot Projects
• Three regional integrated and collaborative Energy-Water planning projects
- Columbia/Yakima River (PNNL/INL)
- Cumberland/Tennessee River (ORNL)
- Metropolitan New York (BNL)
• Existing systems analysis and decision support tool identification and evaluation project for Energy-Water planning applications (LBNL/LLNL)
• Electric grid upgrade study project, optimizing cost, energy reliability, and reduced fresh water use in the West (SNL/LANL/ANL)
GAO Report on the Energy-Water Nexus 2012 recommended DOE to “take the
actions necessary to establish a program to address the energy-water nexus,
with involvement from other federal agencies, as described in the Energy
Policy Act of 2005.” In December 2012, the DOE Undersecretary established a
Water-Energy Tech Team.

U.S. MARKAL Analysis Focused on Water needs of Electricity Generation
Currently Modeled Water Systems Possibilities of Adding w IPIECA Collaboration
10 Region US MARKAL with12 Timeslices – S/W/I-DAM/DPM/DPK/NGT
Accounts for water withdrawals and water consumption for electricity
production from:
• Fossil fuels (Coal, Nat. Gas, Oil)
• Nuclear power
• Renewable energy (Geothermal, Biomass, Solar Thermal and PV)
Detailed water use factors provided by the National Renewable Energy
Laboratory (NREL), have been applied to the technology- rich base of the
model.
• Regional factors for existing power plants
• Uniform factors for future technologies
Allows for the analysis of the impact which technology investment and
policy choices related to the development of the energy system affect
water use.
Model was calibrated to the Energy Information Administration’s 2010
Annual Energy Outlook. 8

Studied the potential impact of carbon prices at $50 and $100 per ton of CO2
on total water use.
Identified significant reductions potentials in water use under the carbon policy
scenarios.
Reductions are driven by a shift to less carbon intensive technologies as
compared to our base case; such technologies also happen to be less water
intensive.

Contributions and Major Findings
Leakage Impact Valuation:
• Multiple cost drivers
• Differences across scenarios, activities, stakeholders
• Injection interruption – significant and not insurable
RISCS:
• 3D Geospatial Leakage Risk Assessment
• Inform site-selection and decision-making
Interference Risk:
• Complicated Interaction: Leakage magnitudes, probabilities, pathways, activities, geologic sequence
• Stakeholders affected in different ways in different places
USDW NOT contaminated by displaced brine
Risk can Reprioritize Reservoir Preferences
Energy Market Competitiveness
• CCS faces significant competition from natural gas and renewables
• Environmental policy restrictions on the energy market help CCS gain larger share
• Innovative financial mechanisms are needed for effective deployment

city (1, 2, 3)
•Network of risers
and 6000 miles of
distribution mains

Facilitating Comprehensive Strategic EWN Decision Making
MARKAL provides comprehensive and integrated long-term infrastructure investment
decisions methodology (2005-2050)
• Evaluates impacts of environmental, technological and policy restrictions on
current and future decisions (e.g. State Implementation Plans, carbon reduction or vehicle
efficiency/cleaner standards)
• Assesses long-term economic and environmental benefits and measurable
payouts of technology and infrastructure decisions (e.g. County, City, Investment banking
or Insurance industry decisions based on risk, adaptation and mitigation benefits or Socially
Responsible Investment Pools)
• Identifies the most cost-effective pattern of technology deployment and resource
use (e.g. energy efficient or clean energy techs), including synergies, tradeoffs and fuel switching
(e.g. Alternative Fuels, Carbon Pricing)
• Guides investment decisions based on technology and investment additionality of
competing alternatives (e.g. renewable technologies or EPA Clean Water Revolving Fund
decisions)
