Israel Proves the Desalination Era Is Here
The article states --<p>&quot;Desalination used to be an expensive energy hog, but the kind of advanced technologies being employed at Sorek have been a game changer. Water produced by desalination costs just a third of what it did in the 1990s. Sorek can produce a thousand liters of drinking water for 58 cents. Israeli households pay about US$30 a month for their water — similar to households in most U.S. cities, and far less than Las Vegas (US$47) or Los Angeles (US$58).&quot;<p>But I saw nothing about where the energy comes from, the type of source, the scale.  I&#x27;d like to compare this with local proposals, etc.<p>One of the biggest DeSal issues is cost of conversion and source, proximity of source, etc. play a huge factor.
