SolarSpring Ships First Solar Powered Drinking Water System to Burkina Faso
SolarSpring’s ECO 3000 drinking water system ordered by investor and operator Eau Propre d´Afrique SARL and financially supported by the climate protection organization atmosfair GmbH was shipped to Burkina Faso on 21 January and awaits installation on arrival.
The SolarSpring ECO 3000 solar powered drinking water system has a capacity of 3 m³/hour and is the first of many systems to be supplied to Burkina Faso within the upcoming years. An entirety of 6 km of piping was laid in preparation to the delivery in order to connect the system with its 5 distribution points. At each of these water access points, water can be drawn by use of a smart card and a card reader system, ensuring a fair distribution of the clean drinking water. This and the following ECO 3000 systems will be installed, operated and serviced by the partner Eau Propre d´Afrique SARL.
SolarSpring GmbH, a 100 % subsidiary of Clean Industry Solutions Holding Europe AB, had received the order for the water purification system in the amount of 48,200 € from atmosfair in August 2021, with the prospect of a total of 10 system orders within the next 5 years, adding up to approximately 2.41 m€.
