Following the news post earlier this week, NextEnergy Foundation is delighted to announce that the project with Bala Vikasa is now complete.

The Foundation funded the installation of two solar-powered water purification systems in two rural villages in India: Ragampet (Warangal District) and Pamena (Ranga Reddy District), Telangana State. Please visit the project page for full details about the project and the impacts, including:

  • 3,300 people from 660 families with access to potable water
  • 3,500 litres potable water generated per day by each system; 2.5m litres per year in total
  • 194.2 tonnes CO2e displaced over each system’s 20-year lifetime
  • 1.4 tonnes of SO₂ emissions displaced over each system’s 20-year lifetime
  • 862.56 tonnes of NOx emissions displaced over each system’s 20-year lifetime

Bala Vikasa will continue monitoring the project for NextEnergy Foundation for the next two years, and project reports will be submitted annually to track the ongoing impact of the solar-powered water purification systems.
