Water Security

Globally, water use has been growing at twice the rate of population growth in the last century. An increasing number of regions are reaching the limit at which water services can be sustainably delivered. Water scarcity is exacerbated by rapidly growing populations, expanding urbanisation and increased demand for agricultural water. Climate change and global warming alter precipitation and amplify water insecurity. Water withdrawals increased at almost twice the rate of the population growth in the twentieth century and a 50 percent surge in food demand is expected by 2050. Water insecurity is a serious threat for now, but CPRSX can mitigate this threat. 

CPRSX chose high-humidity provinces for our Protected Food Production and our first REDD+ Forestry project because bush fires are avoided. We will overcome water insecurity by reliance on commercial grade Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) technologies. The high humidity rate assures abundant agricultural and potable water. The optimal operational range for Atmospheric Water Generators starts at 25% which is ideal for advanced AWG technology because, the regional relative humidity level exceeds 73%.

Water security conditions are all the more mitigated because the transfer of JV Partner’s small-scale farms into our hi-tech greenhouses reduces traditional water demand. That is because greenhouse water demand for food crops is reduced by 95%. The high regional humidity together with lower water demand for food crops enhances excess water production and enables our entry into bottled water enterprises too.

The main benefits of incorporating AWG technology is that they produce premium grade agricultural and drinking water through the heat exchange, filtration, purification and mineralization technologies. They are energy efficient and cost effective when solar powered, therefore producing 1 litre of water using as little as 0.3 KWH of power, while operate efficiently from 25%+ relative Humidity. The Atmospheric Water Generators comply with international water purification and American standards ASSE LEC 2004, EPA NSF61 and Federal Drinking Water Standards too.
