The Green Energy Park (GEP) is a solar energy testing, research and training platform located in the green city of Ben Guerir in Morocco.
The study investigated the feasibility of two mature desalination technologies: reverse osmosis (RO) and electrodialysis (ED/EDR). STEP Consulting GmbH conducted an analysis of the source water, a comprehensive feasibility study, including conceptual analysis, market analysis, OPEX and CAPEX calculations and elements from basic engineering. Based on the analysis data, essential technologies for pre-treatment, post-treatment and appropriate brine treatments were selected. STEP Consulting GmbH also calculated the estimated energy consumption of the plant for multiple variations of plant designs and considered implementation of solar energy generation systems.
