A US nonprofit is bringing clean water to drought-stricken areas in Kenya and Haiti through its award-winning containerized, solar-powered water desalination and purification technology. GivePower’s Solar Water Farms can operate around the clock, utilizing solar and battery storage technology. Currently, it has operational farms in Kiunga and Likoni in Kenya, and La Gonave in Haiti. Eight other sites will be complete by the end of 2021.

GivePower makes two kinds of Solar Water Farms. The Max can transform up to 70,000 liters of saltwater daily into  drinking water for up to 35,000 people per day.The Mobi, a smaller, more mobile unit that is faster to deploy, can produce enough clean drinking water for up to 3,000 people per day. The new Mobi+ model, which purifies brackish water, serves up to 7,500 people per day.
