Na na na I call bullshit on the energy thing.
Build essentially an expansive greenhouse out in a place that you can easily let a manageable amount of seawater in but also receives a ton of sunlight. Allow the water in to the point where the greenhouse floor is covered by a few inches of dihydrogen monoxide. Let the water evaporate into the ceiling of the greenhouse where it's drawn away from the collection area by solar powered fans / other air pressure system to be condensed back into liquid form for storage. At night let convicts scrape the particulates off of greenhouse floor for whatever can be used at best or to allow the floor to be used again the next day at worst. The water, as my limited scientific understanding has lead me to believe, should be safe for agricultural or industrial use while remaining relatively cheap compared to reverse osmosis.

Desalinization requires a lot of power, but it's been used in the middle east, Australia and New Zealand with great success. Water is more expensive, but it's plentiful. The power issue can be addressed with solar and wind power. We can solve this problem, and the more widespread the technology becomes, the less expensive it will be to implement and operate. California is building a couple of new desalinization plants right now. and one is supposed to be up and running this summer.

http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2015/...rs-completion/ CARLSBAD — As an unprecedented drought tightens its grip on California, completion is near for the $1 billion Carlsbad Desalination Project that is expected to supply 7 to 10 percent of San Diego County’s drinking water by the end of this year.
