The DESERTEC Foundation
and the DESERTEC Concept:

»Clean energy from the
deserts for a world with
10 billion people «
A glance at the year 2050:

How can 10 billion people live
on earth?
Sustainability is the central survival
strategy for a growing population
on our limited planet earth!
The earth’s energy resources have
limits.

A world of 10 million people
needs an energy resource that
is sustainable and clean.

The earth can harness this energy
source!
Within 6 hours deserts receive more 
energy from the sun than humankind 
consumes within a year.
The DESERTEC Concept presents
a possibility to provide more than
90% of mankind with clean energy
from the deserts.

0.5 % of the earth’s desert surface
area is enough to provide power for
a world with 10 million people.
Mankind has the adequate
technology :

Concentrated Solar Power Plants and
high powered direct current lines.
Our energy solution can defuse
other major challenges such as
conflicts over water, living spaces,
and oil.
The DESERTEC Foundation provides
a solution for mankind’s major
challenges of energy, water, and
climate.

With our partners, we work on
realising the DESERTEC Concept.
For the implementation of the
DESERTEC Concept we will work
with four initiatives:
Industrial
               Initiative




Public
Initiative   DESERTEC       Political
                            Initiative




               Academic
               Initiative
The DESERTEC Industrial Initiative
illustrates a solution to the global
energy supply.
Saving the planet is the future’s
largest enterprise.

We wish for a world that everyone
wants to live in.

»Welcome!«
Dr. Gerhard Knies
Chairman of the Supervisory
Board of the DESERTEC
Foundation
