Water-Poor Egypt Eyes Increase in Desalination Capacity in 5 Years – Egypt Egypt is worried about its supply of fresh water. To help deal with the problem, it is offering financial assistance to private companies to build 17 new desalination factories over the next 5 years. The process of desalination removes salt from water. The new factories will increase water desalination in the country by 300 percent. They will operate with solar energy. (LINK).

SWS a Finnish water technology company, has come as close as anyone to being able to offer the world essentially unlimited fresh water through its unique, zero-emissions, zero-running cost, and non-polluting desalination technology. Now it’s being deployed, thanks to backing from the Dutch group Climate Fund Managers, in Kitui County, Kenya as part of a long-term goal to provide water for 400,000 rural Kenyans by […] Solar-Powered Desalination Device Will Turn Sea Water Into Fresh Water For 400,000 People – KenyaDME GmbH2021-10-08T11:34:28+02:00
Namibia is poised to become the renewable energy hub of Africa – Namibia In March 2021, as I launched Namibia’s Second Harambee Prosperity Plan (HPPII), I reflected on the need to emphasize the importance of multilateralism in our efforts to foster an enduring economic recovery. Namibia’s policy on international relations and cooperation is anchored in multilateralism because our very independence was a product of international solidarity. We are a nation that was midwifed by the United Nations. It is for this reason that as we crafted our green economic recovery plan; we knew that it had to build a more sustainable […] Namibia is poised to become the renewable energy hub of Africa – NamibiaDME GmbH2021-10-04T15:32:04+02:00
Developing Sinai – Egypt On Monday, President Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi inaugurated the world’s largest wastewater treatment plant.
