Making water in a desert, from sunlight and air
CNN
In the desert surrounding Dubai, SOURCE Global is making drinking water using solar powered Hydropanels.
SOURCE Global is one of the many companies around the world extracting water from the air, with the hope of helping water-scarce communities. However, its technology has a sustainable twist. Named Hydropanels, its devices are powered by built-in solar panels. "You're able to harvest water from the air using solar and nothing else, no need for electricity, no need for (a) grid, no need for infrastructure -- it's perfectly self-sufficient," explains Vahid Fotuhi, the company's vice president for Europe, Middle East and Africa.More Related News
