Tarragona, sun or drinking water

New technology to take advantage of Tarragona’s sun to generate drinking water essential to make properties without water supply livable.

Turn a disadvantage into an opportunity

In the current scenario of drought due to climate change and the restricted use of existing water resources we can study alternative solutions to provide ourselves with the drinking water essential to make our property livable.

The usual options are the use of rainwater cisterns, very common in the fields of southTarragona (Baix Camp Baix Ebre, Ribera d’Ebre, Terra Alta, Montsià, …), and when these are dry, the hiring of cistern trucks.

In territories where summer has high temperatures and relative humidity, technology offers us an innovative solution:

Solar drinking water generators

The water produced with atmospheric water generators has a quality controlled by the user himself and generates practically no waste and has a very low energy cost.
If small or medium volumes are needed for consumption, it is a new technology to consider in terms of autonomy and sustainability.

They are ideal for territories with dry and long summers, such as Tarragona and the entire Mediterranean coast.

A water generating equipment needs only air and electricity as the energy source to operate. If it is combined with a photovoltaic source, we can achieve that the cost of generating a liter of water once the equipment has been amortized is practically zero.

That’s why we can take advantage of Tarragona’s sun to more sustainably generate the drinking water essential to make our property on the coast or the mountains livable.
