SPO of Islamabad Chooses Rainmaker Technology to Provide
Safe Drinking Water for Multiple Sites in Pakistan
Peterborough, Canada -- December 18, 2017 -- InvestorsHub
NewsWire -- Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (OTC:
RAKR) announces that it has partnered with Strengthening
Participatory Organization (SPO) a national not-for-profit
organization headquartered in Islamabad, Pakistan to bring safe
drinking water to thirsty and marginalized communities in the
neediest areas of the country.
To pilot the technology, SPO has identified areas in Sind namely
Tharparkar, Sujawal, Thatta, Badin, Malir, Jamshoro, Tando
Muhammaad Khan, and the area of Abbottabad namely Dubran, Kholrian,
Bandi Phulan and Bhattian. A new potential site in Gawadar,
Balochistan, will also be included for discussions with Rainmaker.
Per the terms of this agreement, SPO will facilitate the
identification of National and International organizations to
participate in this program.
Based on current projections, the first implementations and
fresh water delivery would take place Q3, 2018. After field studies
by Rainmaker and SPO, both Water-to-Water and Air-to-Water units
were selected for implementation. Each Water-to-Water machine will
provide up to 150,000 liters of drinking water per day, while each
Air-to-Water machine will deliver up to 20,000 liters per day.
All will be powered by a combination of wind and solar to
provide the most energy-efficient and cost-effective solutions for
delivering affordable water.
Dire water crisis projections demand action today. Recently, the
Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) delivered a
grave
warning: if the government does not take action, the country
will face severe water stress by 2025. Severe water scarcity is
already having a negative impact on the country's public health and
the economy.
Media reports indicate that in many cases, traditional tube
wells are failing, leaving some communities vulnerable without
local sources of clean water.
Sustainable solutions for long-term water problems Saleem Malik,
CEO of Strengthening Participatory Organization said, "SPO has been
working
with communities in over 75 districts in all four provinces to
promote access to basic servicesand facilities. We are helping
solve the crisis in water shortages and reduce the high costs when
drinking water does become available. After thorough evaluation, we
are confident that Rainmaker technology will provide much-needed,
consistent supplies of safe drinking water to these communities. We
are also pleased that Rainmaker uses clean energy sources to
deliver
affordable water."
Michael O'Connor, CEO of Rainmaker Worldwide said, "We thank SPO
for choosing Rainmaker technology and we will work closely with the
entire SPO team to solve Pakistan's pressing water needs. We look
forward to a long-term relationship with SPO and collaborating on
many future
projects."

Our patented water technology
provides economical drinking water at scale wherever it's
needed. Rainmaker builds two types
of energy-efficient, fresh water-producing technologies:

anywhere, and leaves no carbon
traces. We also offer options for hybrid, grid and
diesel-powered models.
Air-to-Water units are available in three standard sizes,
producing 5,000, 10,000 or 20,000 liters
of drinking water per day. Water-to-Water units are also
available in three standard sizes
producing 37,500, 75,000 or 150,000 liters per day. This makes
each unit suitable for
communities of 200 to 30,000 people, depending on number of
units deployed.
Our goal is to become a global leader in solving the worldwide
water crisis. Simply put, we're
creating safe, drinking water where little or none exists.
