What is Salinity Gradient Energy Overview about?

This document discusses salinity gradient power generation, which uses osmotic pressure differences between salt water and fresh water to generate electricity. It describes two main technologies: pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) and reversed electrodialysis (RED). Current net power densities are around 2.7 W/m2, with laboratory values up to 14.4 W/m2. Barriers to adoption include high capital costs due to expensive membranes, which make up 50-80% of costs. The global technical potential for salinity gradient
