Risk Management Inside the Water-Energy Nexus

I found this interesting - from Harto and Yan in Analysis of Drought Impacts on Electricity Production in the Western and Texas Interconnections of the United States published December 2011:

"A total of 423 [thermoelectric power] plants were analyzed.  Of these, 43% were identified as having cooling-water intake heights of less than 10 ft. below the typical water level of their source."
