Water and power utilities are interdependent, subject to many of the same natural and manmade hazards, and critical for the well-being of communities and society. In April 2021, a virtual workshop was held that brought together representatives from water, wastewater, and electric utilities; government organizations; water- and electricity-based professional associations; consulting firms; and researcher organizations to explore water and power system interdependencies and resilience. The workshop explored a vision for coordinated and resilient water and electric utilities of the future and identified barriers and strategies for increased coordination and integrated planning between water and power utilities.
