USA: Opportunity for Geothermal Energy to Help in Desalination Research

Department of Energy Announces $100 Million Energy-Water Desalination Hub to Provide Secure and Affordable Water (News Release)

Today, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $100 million to establish an Energy-Water Desalination Hub to address water security issues in the United States.

The Hub will focus on early-stage research and development (R&D) for energy-efficient and cost-competitive desalination technologies including manufacturing challenges, and for treating non-traditional water sources for multiple end-use applications.

View the funding application and submission requirements for the Energy-Water Desalination Hub here. Concept papers are due on February 7, 2019.
