The TULIPE project: a mobile, self-sufficient atmospheric water generator in the South of France
In early 2024, Airdrink designed a solution to demonstrate that fresh, pure, mineralized water for human consumption can be produced just about anywhere - mobile, energy-independent and without drawing on groundwater!
The "Tulipe" project in figures :
- Atmospheric water generator producing up to 500 liters of water per day (at 30°C and 80% humidity) from air humidity
- 14 solar panels of 550 Wp, i.e. 7700 Wp of maximum energy production with remote-controlled opening/closing
- 600-litre water tank
- 5 LifePo4 Lithium batteries for 25 kWh of storage capacity, enabling the generator to produce water for up to 15 hours on a sunny day.
- Remote monitoring of water generator and energy output
The aim of the project
To provide access to quality drinking water, at low cost, in a sustainable manner and in places where there is no access to water or energy.
demonstrate that we can supply pure water almost anywhere:
In France, solutions for accessing water via atmospheric generators are little known. Airdrink is working with the Southern Region to present these innovative solutions to the general public, without having to draw on water tables that dry up in summer.
Air is an infinite resource, and with a photovoltaic system we can produce water at will!
