DESCRIPTION:Large amounts of renewable energy sources (e.g.\, solar photovo
 ltaics and wind power) and new electric loads (e.g.\, plug-in electric veh
 icles) are being added to the electric power grid in a push to mitigate th
 e effects of climate change. Due to the intermittent and uncertain nature 
 of these resources\, more flexibility is needed to ensure safe operating c
 onditions of the power grid. A growing body of research has shown that rea
 l-time control of flexible electric loads can provide flexibility to the p
 ower grid. The water supply system (including drinking water distribution 
 and wastewater treatment processes) can be treated as flexible\, controlla
 ble assets. For instance\, the power consumption of water supply pumps in 
 drinking water distribution networks and biogas electricity generation can
  be shifted in time given the storage capabilities of water and pressurize
 d gas tanks\, respectively. In this talk\, I will present an optimization 
 framework to optimally schedule and control assets within the water supply
  system to provide services to power networks. Throughout the talk\, I wil
 l discuss the associated benefits and drawbacks of the integrated water-po
 wer optimization framework\, with a particular focus on performance\, resi
 lience\, and computational tractability.\n\nThis presentation will count f

 ewable energy sources (e.g.\, solar photovoltaics and wind power) and new 
 electric loads (e.g.\, plug-in electric vehicles) are being added to the e
 lectric power grid in a push to mitigate the effects of climate change. Du
 e to the intermittent and uncertain nature of these resources\, more flexi
 bility is needed to ensure safe operating conditions of the power grid. A
