From system concept to serious game: the SIM4NEXUS approach to policy-relevant nexus research

(Corresponding) Susnik J., Masia S., Khoury M., Vamvakeridou-Lyroudia L., Brouwer F., Riegels N., Domingo X., Lluis E., Evans B., Savic D.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
There is growing interest in using serious games for a wide range of applications, from water resources management, to surgery simulations, to pilot training. At the same time, there is rapidly growing interest in the water-energy-food/land-climate nexus, where interactions in one sector can lead...Read more

A system dynamics model to quantify the impacts of restoration measures on the water-energy-food nexus in the Urmia lake Basin, Iran

Bakhshianlamouki E., Masia S., Karimi P., van der Zaag P., (Corresponding) Susnik J.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Water scarcity exacerbated by growing demand has created environmental, social, and economic challenges in the Urmia Lake Basin (ULB), Iran. Tackling these requires an integrated approach. A System Dynamics Model is developed simulating the water-energy-food nexus in the ULB as a holistic multi-...Read more

Perspectives, challenges and directions for future research into the water-energy-food (WEF) nexus

(Corresponding) Susnik J., Staddon C.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
In 2018, Albrecht et al. published a review of water-energy-food (WEF) nexus literature, coming to five main criticisms in nexus research. The five central conclusions of that review together with a consideration of on-going projects and recent nexus research insights form the basis for this...Read more

A Water-Based Approach for Addressing RES Integration Challenges in Insular Energy Systems

(Corresponding) Tzanes G., Makropoulos C., Zafirakis D., Kaldellis J., Stamou A.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
High shares of RES-based power capacity in island electricity grids often imply significant energy curtailments of non-dispatchable power generation, which in turn limits islands’ capacity to leverage RES environmental and economic benefits. The presence of energy storage systems and/or grid...Read more

Water centrality to enabling water-energy-food systems

(Corresponding) Susnik J., Masia S., Teutschbein C.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Water is a key enabler of global water-energy-food nexus systems. The role of water in energy generation and its role in food provision, is made explicit. These are aspects that are often overlooked, or ‘embedded’ in assessments, skimming over the critical role that water plays in societal-enabling...Read more
