Sea-Water Desalination for Load Levelling of Gen-Sets in Small Off-Grid Islands
This study deals with the energy/water nexus on small off-grid islands. Small islands share several characteristics that hinder the introduction of new plants, such as: Energy system balance when renewable sources are introduced; water shortages, usually addressed via shipping from the mainland; env...
