Idaho’s new $24M NSF EPSCoR RII project, I-CREWS, aims to address the impact of climate, population, and technological change on energy-water (E-W) systems.

I-CREWS integrates local knowledge, governance dynamics, and advanced modeling. It involves over 35 core university and college faculty, plus 8 new early-career hires, 10 postdocs, and 20 graduate students while supporting 31 Vertically and Community Integrated Projects designed to reach over 500 students and community members.
