“…Solar PV technologies are well suited for supporting brackish water treatment systems built for small installations, with supply below 1,000 m 3 per day of clean water (Goosen M. et al, 2023). This type of equipment can be operated with or without batteries and is particularly useful in areas lacking access to drinking water and stable grid electricity.…”

“…Furthermore, in remote or isolated areas without grid connections, hybrid wind-diesel systems have proven particularly effective in regions such as Alaska, reducing operating and maintenance costs and mitigating CO 2 emissions [99]. Incorporating renewable energy resources into desalination plants [100,101], as demonstrated in the Kwinana desalination unit in western Australia, can potentially address the high energy consumption and environmental issues associated with desalination [102]. Although technical considerations are paramount, the economic feasibility of hybrid energy systems is also critical.…”

“…An eco-friendly Janus wood evaporator has been fabricated where the top surface was functionalized by perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane (FAS) to improve hydrophobicity, while the untreated bottom surface remained highly hydrophilic, which is an inherent property of the wood [18]. A technoeconomic analysis of novel Janus evaporator and other related systems is reported in a recent review published in Solar Compass [19]. The review emphasized more on sustainable photochemical-based desalination using Janus wood architecture nanotechnology, as proposed by Dong et al [20], that overcomes many of the current solar desalination issues.…”
