GSC conducted a multidisciplinary feasibility assignment for UNICEF Libya and the General Desalination Company to evaluate renewable-energy integration at the Zuwara Desalination Plant. The six-month assignment addressed the plant's high energy intensity and its dependence on conventional fuels.
GSC carried out an electrical load analysis of approximately 215 MWh/day, followed by assessment of solar PV, solar thermal and hybrid options against a dedicated solar-resource and site assessment. Lifecycle economic modelling, including IRR, NPV and payback, supported preliminary sizing, a Bill of Quantities and a phased implementation roadmap.
The case demonstrates GSC's approach of connecting engineering decisions with reliability, lifecycle value, operational performance and sustainability. Where quantified results are shown above, they are retained from the underlying project material and should not be altered by the website developer.
Solarising critical infrastructure requires a system-level view. The renewable-energy design must be matched to the plant's operational profile, reliability requirements, available land, electrical interfaces and investment constraints rather than being sized only from annual energy demand.
Partner with GSC to transform complex engineering, energy and infrastructure challenges into practical, sustainable solutions that improve performance, strengthen resilience and create lasting value.
