Evaluation of Spain's Water-Energy Nexus

The nexus of food, energy, and water.

The Earth's population is expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050, posing significant challenges in meeting human needs while minimally affecting the environment. To support this population, we will need secure and safe sources of food, energy, and water. The nexus of food, energy, and water is one of the most complex, yet critical, issues that face society. There is no more land to exploit, and t...

Mathematical Modelling of Second and Third Generations of Biomass Networks Considering Water-Energy Nexus

Nowadays required energy mostly comes from fossil fuels but the limitation of fossil resources and their environmental effects have encouraged communities to seek alternative renewable energy sources. Meanwhile enery forom biomass (bioenergy) has particular importance due to wide range of resources and other advantages. In this research, a multi-objective model is proposed to design a bioenergy...

Challenges in operationalizing the water–energy–food nexus

Concerns about the water–energy–food (WEF) nexus have motivated many discussions regarding new approaches for managing water, energy and food resources. Despite the progress in recent years, there remainmany challenges in scientific research on theWEF nexus, while implementation as a management tool is just beginning. The scientific challenges are primarily related to data, information and know...
