Renewable Energy Desalination (AG025)
PVAIZEC - Large PV Pumping Systems for zero energy irrigation (AG103)
Water-Energy nexus
• Lack of integrated approach:
System development (need of integration of energy
supply and desalination)
R&D financing (RE-Desalination marginal both in the
fields of energy and water)
Policies (water and energy policies are dealt by different
administrations)
• Lack of training and knowledge
• New technologies by SMEs in need to open markets
• Small-scale technologies struggle in the big picture of water supply
Renewable Energy
Desalination AG
Main Challenges
• Improve RE-desalination technology and reduce its costs.
• Establish an economic and institutional support system for RE-desalination.
• Increase awareness on RE-desalination.
• Bring new technologies to the market.

Resolute Marine Clean Water From Ocean Waves
Seawater Greenhouse technology
for sustainable intensification of agriculture
in the world’s arid regions
What is Seawater Greenhouse technology?
Initiated in 1990’s by the London-based company Light Works Ltd
Essential features:
Cooling by seawater evaporation
Seawater desalination for irrigation
Renewable energy (wind/solar)
Benefits:
Cool humid environment for intensive cultivation
Irrigation from saline water via desalination – freshwater resource
not needed
Avoid grid connection
Disposal of brine by volume reduction > conversion to solid salt
Restoration and stabilisation of desertified areas > nucleus for
plantation of trees and shrubs.
