Rainmaker
Worldwide Inc. (OTC: RAKR) Wins EU Horizon 2020 Project and Awarded
$2.5Mil USD Grant to Develop First of Its Kind 100% Renewable Water
to Water Solution in the Canary
Islands
NETHERLANDS -- September 30, 2019 -- InvestorsHub
NewsWire -- Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. today announced the award of
European Union (EU) Horizon 2020 Project for Rainmaker’s Water to
Water Product. One of 15 winners across all of Europe out of nearly
6000 applicants.
After a two-year process of due diligence by the
European Union, Rainmaker was granted a Grant for more than 2.5
million USD to develop a Water to Water solution in the Canary
Islands. It will be 100% powered by renewable energy. The only
desalination of its kind using only renewable
energy.
Water scarcity is one of the biggest challenges of
the 21st Century with more than 40% of the World’s Population
affected by water shortages. By 2050, 5 billion people will be
affected. This does not just affect the developing world. One third
of European countries are affected by water
shortages.
The grant was awarded because of Rainmaker’s
unique and proprietary technology specifically related to the use
of renewable energy. Traditional desalination technologies are
highly energy depended and typically operated at very large scale
in urban environments. Rainmaker’s technology addresses these two
challenges directly by providing desalination and small and medium
scale with the most efficient energy usage
possible.
Our technology is highly versatile, scalable
mobile and rapidly deployable. It can be used in a variety of
applications such as humanitarian relief, military, drinking water
solutions and water purification in industrial
applications.
The program will be executed over a two-year
period starting in September of 2019. The planning is in place to
build, install and validate the technology for use in the Canary
Islands. Initially production capacity will be 80,000 litres per
day. The continuing market deployment of the technology will
commence with expected volumes of more than 200 units by
2025.
We are extremely excited about what this project
means for the future of Rainmaker. It allows us to bring in more
expert engineering capability and will allow us to scale the
business globally.
