Abstract:As water and electrical networks cannot be entirely independent, a more integrated approach, the water–energy nexus (WEN), is developed. A WEN is the basis of a smart city where water and electrical networks are interconnected and integrated by implementing efficient management strategies. Accordingly, this study develops a dynamic co-optimization model for designing and operating an integrated power and water system. The proposed co-optimization model minimizes the total annual and operational costs of a micr… Show more
