Summary

Survey of solar updraft tower power plants covering their physical basis, history, performance traits, feasibility and commercial prospects, along with past attempts to couple them with desalination. The authors see strong potential in pairing such plants with liquid desiccant systems to generate electricity and fresh water at the same time.
