DESERTEC, Clean Energy for 10 Billion People
DESERTEC is a concept to enable 10 billion people to live on a planet with limited resources.
Climate change and depleting energy resources, with simultaneously increasing population, endanger the peaceful coexistence of peoples on this earth.
The increasing demand on energy and water can be satisfied by using the sun power with already present mature technologies for energy production and seawater desalination to serve 90% of the population of earth.
Not only satisfying the demands, but also raising the living standard of developing nations and slowing the dangerous rise of global temperature are the intended and welcome side effects.
