Lack of water is our biggest problem…if there is no water, there is no life.
 
We must repair the existing wells, assuming the water table has not lowered.
Given our last result, in future budgets we will always include a further 20 meters minimum of drilling.
 
We’re building some solar distillers, hoping to supply a minimum of 3 to 4 litres f water/day per family.
We’re looking into affordable desalination systems.
Moreover, the well water requires some filtering system. We do not require a superior purity as we have been drinking it so far, but we must forecast the possibility that underground water table pollution might become excessive.
 
Our studies calculate that each f the seven wells to be repaired will cost an average Euro 1,500, each and whole-heartedly thank those who helped us repairing the first two. Project data available upon request
project data
Euro 1,500 per well (7) to repair, inclusive of further digging if required
Solar condensation individual system: Euro 50 per family unit
Desalination plant supplying 1,500 litres/day. It is powered by 250W/hour batteries; therefore it might require one or two photovoltaic panels. Price: Euro 4,500 + Vat and transport.
