When I blogged about how a Sustainable Sahara desert Oasis could supply Food, Fresh water and Electric power to African cities I did not know the Europeans were far ahead in the planning for such a project already.The aim of the Sahara Desert project Desertech is to "harness power from the Sahara Desert sun to bring extra electricity to European homes".
According to the Desertec website "The DESERTEC Foundation is intended to serve as a hub for realizing the DESERTEC Concept. It will also work for creating a global alliance to ensure security of energy supplies, to promote economic development, and to stabilize the world's Climate".
