In the last decade, the King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy [1], as the lead Saudi Arabia governmental agency for renewable energy, has developed the Renewable Resource Monitoring and Mapping (RRMM) Solar Measurement Network, which currently involves more than 50 metrological stations distributed over the area of Saudi Arabia.
An active single basin solar still (ASS) integrated with a sensible storage material has been investigated by computer simulation under Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) prevailing weather conditions. A thin layer of sand has been integrated beneath the basin liner to produce fresh water from the ASS during the night.
The Kingdom''s Vision 2030 pledges to develop alternative energy, like wind and solar. Saudi Arabia also has vast geothermal energy resources, in particular along the Red Sea due to high heat-flow from deep in the Earth. We focus our research on the hydrothermal resources in the high heat-flow Red Sea rift basin. References IEA
The present study proposed a new system of atmospheric water harvesting from extreme low humid regions under climatic conditions of Hail city (27.64 o N, 41.75 o E), Saudi Arabia. The concept of the proposed system was to activate the tubular solar still by a parabolic solar concentrator.This concept would increase TSS ability to evaporate water from strong
