Integration

The opportunity for infrastructure reinvention must consider the potential to functionally integrate our electric, water, and transportation systems to maximize synergies and benefits to society.

Electric, water, and transportation are all long, linear systems that do not exist in harmony today. A failure in one system disrupts the other. The presence of one system affects constructability and maintainability of the other. And upon closer examination, each system could functionally benefit the other if they were designed and integrated in coordination.
