JOHANNESBURG--January 25, 2013--Written by Richard Finlayson, Senior International Editor for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The years from now through 2020 are going to see project convergences in sources of power generation --not so much hybrid, but the coupling of complementary technologies into efficient, purpose-designed units with targeted benefits. Masdar (Abu Dhabi), which specializes in clean energy, is part of this vision as it plans to build the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) first large-scale desalination plant to be powered by renewable energy.
