So it's basically a desalination process in a greenhouse powered by solar? I'm not sure why this is better than leveraging existing infrastructure to get freshwater and electricity. Also, farming somewhere other than a desert, then transporting the food to the population (if they live in a desert).
- mastazi 10y agoI guess it makes sense in places like SA, NT or WA, where, in 90% of their territory, all the alternative resources you mentioned are hard to get by.
