Emphasis is on the various uses of renewable energy, as well as economics & scale-up, government subsidies & regulations, and environmental concerns. It provides an indication on how renewable energy technologies are rapidly emerging with the promise of economic and environmental viability for desalination. Further it gives a clear indication on how exactly to accelerate the expansion and commercialization of novel water production systems powered by renewable energies and in what manner environmental concerns may be minimized. This book is all-inclusive and wide-ranging and directed at decision makers in government, industry and the academic world as well as students."--Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (Site, viewed 01/14/2022) Subject Saline water conversion -- Technological innovations Sustainable engineering.
