The system is situated in close proximity to the indian ocean in the village of kiunga on the eastern coast of kenya.
Solar powered desalination plant kenya.
A solar powered desalination plant constructed by givepower is turning sea water to fresh water in the coastal area of kiunga in kenya.
Like givepower s debut solar powered microgrid desalination plant which went live in kiunga kenya in 2018 these new projects will operate with tesla s powerwall battery storage technology.
New solar powered desalination plant provides fresh water in kenya.
The desalination process that s crucial in turning salt water into drinking water is very power consuming and therefore expensive.
New solar powered desalination plant provides fresh water in kenya.
Kenya has built its first solar powered farm converting ocean water into potable water which aims to reduce problems relating to access to clean water.
The plant is already able to support 25 000 people a day.
The desalination system which started operating in the coastal area.
The containerised system powered by solar energy provides drinking water to the people of this coastal area.
Givepower a non profit organisation providing solar energy and clean affordable water has deployed a seawater desalination system at likoni in mombassa county in eastern kenya.
Powered entirely by solar energy and battery storage givepower s desalination systems are housed in 20 foot shipping containers and capable of transforming 70 000.
The plant is already able to support 25 000 people a day.
At a newly constructed facility in kenya however a nonprofit called givepower is tackling that challenge using solar power.
Give power installed what they call a solar water farm in kiunga that harvests solar energy using solar panels.
The newly constructed facility in kenya is tackling the drinking water challenge using solar power and can produce 75 000 liters of fresh drinking water per day enough for 25 000 people.
The givepower organization has just commissioned a desalination system in likoni in mombassa county kenya.
In a bid to provide safe and drinkable water a non governmental organization in kenya has built a large scale solar powered desalination plant on the eastern coast of the country.
As more water scarce regions pop up worldwide technology such as this.
Therefore using solar energy might be a very good long term solution.
