A sustainable future.
Municipalities or utility companies are responsible for the water supply. With growing populations and increasing droughts, the water supply has become a challenging task. While traditional desalination is expensive and carbon-intensive, our efficient desalination technology lowers operational expenses and opens the door to decrease the region’s water tariffs, energy consumption as well as carbon emissions. Decentralized water supply avoids transportation losses, illegal tapping and the use water trucks.
It’s possible to realize sustainability and water goals through efficient desalination by renewable energy. Become resilient and get access to a reliable water supply from unlimited resources.

A community with access to safe and affordable water.
The problem: expensive unsafe water
The community relies on water that is trucked in on a daily basis. The results are a questionable quality upon delivery and a high water tariff of 6 $/m³. Lacking an alternative, the people are forced to spend a majority of their limited income on water, without the assurance of good quality and sufficient availability.
The solution: solar energy desalination
This changes completely when a decentralized solution by Elemental Water Makers is put in place: The Elemental Water Source™, which can be operated to produce 5 m³/day off-grid using only solar energy. There is also the option to produce 11 m³/day in hybrid mode making use of grid or generator power during the night. The Elemental Water Source™ allows the people to enjoy savings of 75% on water expenses and and total savings of over $300.000. The solution’s payback depends on several factors, but, on average, it is around 2.5 years.
The benefits: savings & development
The community now has high-quality potable water on-site, without the dependency of water trucking and associated carbon emissions, saving 10 tons of CO2 per year. The Source™ leads to empowerment, jobs and possibilities for education.
