Clean Power World – achievable with DESERTEC 12,000 solar GigaWatt from Deserts via HVDC super grid to a Worldwith 10 billion People HVDC • World total demand 2050: • 60 PWh/y • Scenario: 50% from deserts: • 30 PWh/y • collectors for 12,000 GW-el • from 450 x 450 km²= 0.55% of all deserts • = 1% of useful deserts • distributed over “10,000” sites 3000 km 10% loss Within 3000 km from deserts: To more than 90% of world pop clean power from deserts available.

Power demand, and supply scenario (TWh/y) in MENA and EU transition mix 2000-2050 in MENA, including export to Europe and power for desalination 6 timesmore in EU-25, and 17% import from MENA By clean power from deserts EU gets clean firm capacity and may win 10-15 years in the fight against climate change. Thanks to energy efficiency and renewable energies nuclear energy can be phased out completely, and gas and coal largely. 8 Friedrich Führ, Berlin 14.10.2009

The DESERTEC concept forms the basis of the Desertec Industrial Initiative (DII) Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) • 12 companies and the DESERTEC Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding. • The objective of this initiative is to analyse and develop the technical, economic, political, social and ecological framework for carbon-free power generation in the deserts of North Africa. 25
