Abstract

The integration of the desalination processes into concentrating solar power plants (CSP + D) is nowadays the best alternative to solve simultaneously the water scarcity problems and the depletion of fossil fuels. Most of the regions facing fresh water shortages have high insolation levels and are located close to the sea, with more than 70 % of the world population living in a 70 km strip bordering the sea. Therefore, the use of solar energy for the simultaneous fresh water and electricity production is maybe the most sustainable solution.
