Kenya
Toxification and pollution of Lake Victoria is a major problem in the region. Together with BGY Bright Green Youth OQ set up a clean up and detoxification project in Kenya at lake Victoria. With the support of robots and drome to scan the water
Combination of solar power and water pipelines
- Access to clean water remains a struggle for many of rural Kenya’s poorest households. Some counties, where rural electrification is widely lacking – are now tapping into solar energy to pump water to villages from nearby rivers keeping their water storage tanks full.
- Costs are estimated of 8 million Kenya shillings ($80,000) for the solar pump. The project could serve over 40,000 people.
- Once the tank is out some meters over the bottom, the pressure of the water is sufficient to use a pipeline system, e.g. from +GF+ Piping
- There are of course numerous options how to do this!
Alternatively, old lorries can be rebuilt with a water tank of 5000 – 10’000 liters on the loading areas. This is especially useful for very isolated areas.
