In this article, a particular attention is being given to first the Middle East & north Africa Deserts (MENA) in terms of solar potential capability in that it could capture enough solar energy to meet the entire world's energy needs using Very Large Scale- Photovoltaic (VLS-PV) system, second to its possibility of attracting inhabitant for accessing to a good quality life, agriculture and energy infrastructure, third to its Sand or Silicon (Si) reserves which is more than the needs to manufacture Photovoltaic (PV) cells for all the suitable area of MENA deserts.
