The case study presented in this chapter discusses the key decisions that factor into the design of a hybrid fuel cell/desalination (HFCD) system to supply a developing region with adequate electrical power and water. The focus of this case study is Caye Caulker, a Carribean island located off the coast of Belize. Caye Caulker has limited fresh water sources and currently uses diesel generators as its sole source of power. The goal of this case study is to replace these diesel generators with an HCFD system that can also provide Caye Caulker with potable water.
