Initial Focus: potable water markets where Wave2OTM can provide immediate relief to over 80 million people living in coastal areas.
Over 1 billion people suffer from the effects of water scarcity with the vast majority being poor residents of developing countries.
FRESH WATER FOR COMMUNITIES IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
A distributed water production system that sets up quickly, is completely grid independent & produces water at low cost.
THE WORLD’S FIRST WAVE-POWERED DESALINATION SYSTEM (WAVE2OTM) REQUIRES NO ELECTRICITY TO OPERATE
Desalting seawater is an excellent potential solution but reverse osmosis (R/O) desalination systems require a connection to an electrical grid to drive the process. Prods report: wave energy and reverse osmosis are the best combination of renewable energy and desalination technologies.
Water generation costs, $/m3
