The solar energy received by the worldwide desert regions within 6 h is roughly estimated more than the energy consumed by humankind in a year . To put it another way, electricity produced by covering 1% of the area of the Sahara desert with solar thermal plants is enough for the world annual power consumption .
Besides extensive exposure to sunlight, the desert regions also have mostly sunny weather with quite low rain precipitation, low population density and large land availability, which enable the possibility of large scale solar energy projects . Fig. 1.
Fig. 1 shows the solar energy received by desert regions in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), Spain, Australia, Southwestern of the United States, Southwestern of China, border of China and Mongolia, and India with highest DNI (>1800 kW h/m 2 /y) compared to other areas in the world.

As land degradation becomes more severe (see Nature 623, 666; 2023), desert photovoltaics are a triple-win, fostering not only clean-energy generation but also ecosystem recovery and local poverty reduction. Panels provide shade, cutting surface water evaporation by 20–30%.
