The present research provided a strong base for comparing the overall efficiency and viability of different autonomous desalination plants. Reverse osmosis is becoming the technology of chose while the continuous reduction in the cost of photovoltaics, and fresh water shortages, can increase the need for more compact desalination system (hybrid or autonomous) mainly for small or/and isolated communities. The current research utilizes the fuzzy logic (FL) methodology to compare and therefore to make decisions about Autonomous Photovoltaic Reverse Osmosis (APVRO) desalination plants through a Benefit to Cost model in a sense of performance and cost enhancement of both, solar energy utilization by photovoltaics, and fresh water production through reverse osmosis unit, that can achieve as much as accurate results.
