Chilean Startup Creates A System That Can Generate Ten Thousand Liters Of Water Per Month From Air And Solar Energy

The Chilean startup that created the system for solar energy focuses on the installation and development of renewable energies, operating in five countries in the region. In 2019, they took a new step and developed a new water source addressing water scarcity. In 2016, brothers Andrés and Horacio Vásquez, along with Catalina Kissling, founded the startup Lader Energy with the goal of combating climate change.

After searching for various ways to produce water with no water or carbon footprint, the Chilean startup created a system in the United States. This year, with an investment of US$ 250 thousand, they developed their own technology “AWA” and built an aerial water station in San Fernando, in the O’Higgins region.

Andrés Vásquez, Business Director of Lader Energy, states that the plant has 62 hydropanels that combine photovoltaic solar energy with thermal solar energy. Some fans absorb moisture from the air, the water particles in the humidity condense and thus potable water is generated. It is then mineralized with calcium and magnesium and goes through UV filtration and activated carbon processes.

Other Goals Of The Chilean Startup

The creators of the system that uses solar energy to generate water intend to sell water directly to communities. The project has already been presented to most authorities, General Water Directorate (DGA), Seremi de Salud, and municipalities, and the company is in negotiations, according to Horacio Vásquez, CEO of the startup.

In parallel, they have already communicated with local merchants, supermarkets, and companies that intend to join the system. The CEO hints that there are plans to open new factories in the north and south. Meanwhile, in Colombia, they are already starting everything to enter later this year, near Medellin.
