The Municipality of Tripoli Centre MTC announced a meeting between its mayor and Austrian company Desert Greener to discuss a pioneering seawater desalination investment project. This strategic move aims to enhance Tripoli's water security. The mayor emphasized that this project represents a model of international cooperation, relying on an investment system that will not cost the Libyan state any money, providing fresh and sustainable water to citizens. The meeting, held via Zoom, included a presentation of the WME-MVC system, which uses concentrated solar power and extracts economically valuable minerals. Coordination took place with the Libyan Seawater Desalination Company, technical departments at the Ministry of Water Resources, and the Al-Toufan Company to ensure compatibility with local technical and environmental standards. These discussions are considered a preliminary agreement, paving the way for upcoming technical meetings and a site visit to assess the company's operational capabilities and technology effectiveness before project implementation. Desert Greener claims its advanced technology has a higher efficiency in solar energy use, delivering at least 25 times the energy yield of conventional systems.
