Elemental Water Desalination Plant in Finca de Arrieta

WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH ELEMENTAL WATER MAKERS FOR OUR DESALINATION PLANT FOR COMPLETION THIS AUTUMN!

As a result of increasing fresh water scarcity and the limited availability and negative consequences associated with fossil fuels, Elemental Water Makers provides water supply solutions using unlimited resources through desalination driven by renewable energy. Especially on islands like Lanzarote, with limited fresh water resources, but an abundance of sun and wind, this is the obvious solution to secure fresh water today, without limiting tomorrow.

Finca de Arrieta used to rely on trucked water hauled from the island’s main desalination facility, which involved high expenses and contributed to emissions of fossil fuels. By switching over to a small-scale but energy efficient desalination unit that receives its energy from the sun & wind, savings go hand-in-hand with the total reduction of the carbon footprint involved with the water supply. An independent, reliable and sustainable fresh water supply has been realized to provide high-quality on-site, demonstrating clean-tech island living.

See below an example of a desalination plant driven by renewal energy in the Virgin Islands… soon in Lanzarote!
