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.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Described by astronauts as one of the most unlikely natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 square kilometers in the middle of the desert and transforms Botswana into a living labyrinth of channels, islands, and flooded areas.

Keeping your foot lightly on the brake pedal while driving may seem harmless, but mechanics warn: this habit generates constant heat, wears out the pads too quickly, and can warp the discs, making braking expensive and dangerous.

It’s not just Bolsa Família: CadÚnico can provide access to seven little-known benefits, including cheaper electricity bills, free interstate travel, microcredit, cisterns, popular phone service, and exemption from fees in public exams and the Enem.

Painting a tree white seems like care, but the mistake many people make, replacing lime can suffocate the trunk and turn sun protection into a risk for the plant.

Brazilian scientists are simultaneously advancing two research projects on clean hydrogen and driving solutions that could transform the energy matrix, enhance industrial competitiveness, and accelerate large-scale emission reduction targets.

Advancement in renewable energy: A R$ 150 million project launched by Petrobras and Finep aims to create state-of-the-art electrolyzers for green hydrogen, strengthening national research and preparing Brazil to compete in a billion-dollar energy market.

Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.
