Tesla batteries help power new solar water desalination plant in Africa – Kenya GivePower has deployed a new water desalination plant in Africa using Tesla batteries and solar power that is now providing clean water to thousands of people. The system has been deployed in Kiunga, a rural village in Kenya where the lack of clean water had people sometimes rely on saltwater wells or even contaminated water. Desalination is a power-consuming process that is hard to implement in a place where power is already scarce. (LINK). HIWI042019-12-31T13:35:37+01:00
