Oh, I'm sure it is subsidized. EVERYTHING there is subsidized. They were a socialist nation and have yet to break free of those shackles (if they ever will).
As for desal, open it up to the market to see what efficiencies can be developed. If there is any chance of making it wildly profitable, and being THE company/entity to fix CA's water problem and have exclusive rights to it for x number of years WOULD be insanely profitable, people will jump on it. Another Elon Musk type (I think he is pretty much DONE with CA).
