Wind-Powered Desalination

Wind turbines generate electricity to power desalination systems, typically Reverse Osmosis (RO) or Electrodialysis (ED). Wind-powered desalination can be integrated into both small-scale and large-scale systems, depending on the size of the wind farm and water demand.

Applications: Coastal regions with high wind energy potential, islands, and areas with high water demand and limited energy resources.

Advantages: Low operational costs after installation, reduces the environmental impact of desalination, and can be combined with other renewable energy sources (e.g., solar) for continuous operation.
