The article presents the results of an experimental study on the operation of a magnetic wastewater treatment system powered by various types of renewable energy sources. During the experiments, characteristic generation profiles of renewable energy sources were reproduced, which made it pos-sible to evaluate the system’s response to fluctuations in available power and to determine the sensitivity of technological parameters to unstable energy supply.  The obtained results demonstrated that the efficiency of magnetic treatment significantly depends on the type and stability of the power source. It was found that power variations inherent to different renewable energy sources affect the intensity of the treatment processes and the system’s energy performance.  The conducted research confirms the feasibility of using renewable energy sources to power magnetic wastewater treatment systems, particularly in autonomous or hybrid energy complexes. The findings can be used to optimize operating modes, develop adaptive control algorithms, and assess the prospects for scaling the technology.
