With one of the highest water & energy tariffs of the world, solar desalination is a no-brainer.
The Virgin Islands consists of numerous beautiful islands surrounded by seawater. A lack of rainfall results in vegetables that aren’t growing and cisterns that are running dry. Droughts are re-occurring yearly.
Desalinated water provided for the community is anything but cheap. With the high electricity and water tariffs on the Virgin Islands, the payback of a desalination solution for private property, community or a resort is short, and the savings are substantial.
