Our Unique Position

Disrupting the global water market.

Ways to Create Clean Drinking Water:

For several decades, the water industry has remained stagnant resulting in absent, inadequate or expensive water supply for far too long.

Traditional

1. Drill wells: This is dependent on reaching the water table and finding a substantial quantity of drinkable water.

2. Rainwater harvesting: Viable and sustainable collection system designed to gather rainwater throughout the year; however, many regions have substantial dry seasons

Emerging / Disruptive Rainmaker

3. Convert air humidity to water: We extract and condense moisture in the air to produce healthy, purified drinking water with our Air-to-Water application.

4. Desalinate seawater or cleanse polluted water: We transform undrinkable, contaminated water into safe, clean water through our Water-to-Water application.

Local fresh water, not dependent on other infrastructure.

A large percentage of the globe is unable to rely on traditional methods to create clean drinking water (see above). These underserved communities have had limited, expensive and unsustainable options for a clean water supply. Options include water transport, desalination plants or Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology which can be cost prohibitive, damaging to the environment or unavailable in remote locations.

Rainmaker’s Water-as-a-Service solutions are:
✔ Versatile
✔ Scalable & Cost-effective
✔ Environmentally & Socially Sustainable
✔ Applying Proprietary Technology

We occupy the critical middle between too small and too big.

Too Small

Small-scale fresh water production is generally at a personal size. These are water purifiers with up to 100-liter per day capacity. They are typically, home-based dehumidifiers or similar technology.

The challenges with these small units are many: reliability, general cleaning and maintenance requirements, replacing parts and filters, and in some cases, reliance on a dependable electrical grid.

Rainmaker fits into the medium scale providing 5,000 – 150,000 liters of fresh water per unit, per day.

Too Big

Large water plants, typically desalination plants, are massive infrastructure projects that cost hundreds of millions or billions and take years for planning, approvals and construction. They are best suited for large urban areas, or as in Israel’s case, to supply a large portion of the country’s water requirements.

According to a Zurich Insurance report on water scarcity, nearly 78% of the world’s poor live in rural areas.9 This is ideal for the solutions offered by Rainmaker.

Regions with the best wind and temperature conditions for Rainmaker technology.

Markets for our Air-to-Water technologies:

  • Remote & Island Communities
  • Bottle / Beverage Industry
  • Building – Medical, Industrial (combination with WW technology)
  • Humanitarian applications in traditional areas of water scarcity
  • Temporary humanitarian applications in disaster or war zones
  • Corporate CSR programs

Markets for our Water-to-Water technologies:

  • Military
  • Building – Medical, Industrial (combination with AW technology)
  • Agriculture/Food Industry
  • Communities with inadequate or no access to a fresh water source or reliable energy source, but close to a significant supply of seawater or polluted water
  • Corporations looking for energy-efficient technology to clean and potentially reuse waste water

The solution for communities of 200 to 30,000 people.

In our sweet spot of serving communities of 200 to 30,000 people, we offer many distinct competitive advantages including:

  • Cost. Our patented technology means our cost per liter of fresh water is lowest in the category.
  • Capacity. Rainmaker produces more liters per day than most competitors under the same climatic and energy conditions.
  • Choice of sizes. We offer units with water capacity sized to specific market demand.
  • Long-term cost effectiveness. Our units require minimal maintenance and operational expenditure.
  • Choice of power sources. We offer choice of wind, solar, grid, or generator. Others typically offer fewer choices or only grid connections.
  • Set-up time. Deployment as fast as 90 days after purchase order; operational within 14 days after containers arrive on location.
  • Footprint. Our on-the-ground footprint is smaller which means much more flexibility in location.

We don’t compete in the markets for household-size units, or on the other extreme, desalination for cities or countries such as San Diego or Israel.
