Atmospheric water collection collects water from the air, making drinking water within a watershed.
Why Atmospheric Water Harvesting?
Across California, groundwater is rapidly declining—and in rural towns like Pescadero, what remains is often contaminated and expensive to treat. But our coastal fog and 60% year-round humidity make Pescadero ideal for new MOF-based atmospheric water systems that pull clean drinking water straight from the air.
AirJoule’s A250 unit costs roughly half the price of drilling a well plus filtration. It’s mobile, simple to set up, and doesn’t draw a single drop of groundwater benefiting farmworker communities, rural families, and the planet.
Pescadero Pilot Results:
65 gal/day Water output
5 kW solar Power source - partnered with Heat Pump technology
Water filtration certification pending
Thanks to Puente for hosting the pilot.
