Water–Energy Management Strategies Evaluated Across Twelve Criteria

A structured dataset supporting a multi-criteria decision analysis framework for water–energy management. It contains evaluations of ten strategies across twelve technical, economic, environmental, and feasibility criteria, with weights derived from a panel of 120 experts. The dataset was created by Qilong Zhou and published on figshare in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Ranking water–energy strategies based on technical and feasibility performance.
• Conducting robustness analysis of policy priorities based on varying expert-derived weights and thresholds.
• Comparing the environmental and economic trade-offs of different infrastructure strategies.
• Validating multi-criteria decision methods using a structured alternatives–criteria dataset.

Strengths

• Derived from a large expert panel of 120 participants.
• Evaluates ten distinct strategies across twelve criteria.
• Includes structured data from quantitative operational data, published benchmarks, and expert elicitation.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (36.7 KB), indicating limited scope.
