German start-up Boreal Light has just delivered 28 solar-powered desalination systems to Kenya. The systems are intended for hospitals treating daily Covid-19 cases in the coastal region of the country, as well as Turkana and Nakuru counties.

In addition to the supply of drinking water, Boreal Light’s objective is to contribute to the fight against Covid-19 in Kenyan hospitals by providing enough water for sanitation, including hand washing. According to Andrew Tuimur, just 22.8% of Kenyans have limited sanitation services and 40% use unimproved services.

More than 2 billion people globally lack access to clean drinking water, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Nonprofit organization GivePower is aiming to reduce that number by using the sun’s energy, shipping containers, desalination technology and local supply chains.

GivePower builds and delivers containerized solar-powered water farms that desalinate salty water.

The organization focuses on areas where “there’s an immediate and growing need for better access to safe water,” Kyle Stephan, vice president of operations at GivePower, told FreightWaves.

seawater into normal water without polluting the area, it will be a massive achievement, as only 3% of the water on Earth is fresh.

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 2023.
