Desafío

International Justice Mission (IJM) es una organización global que combate la violencia y la opresión en comunidades vulnerables. Con cinco oficinas en India, IJM se asocia con los gobiernos locales para abordar específicamente la trata de personas. Como parte de sus esfuerzos de rehabilitación de sobrevivientes del trabajo en condiciones de servidumbre, IJM identificó una aldea en el distrito de Vellore en India, llamada Athiyanam, que necesitaba un suministro de agua potable seguro y resiliente para las 10 familias sobrevivientes que vivían allí.

Athiyanam enfrentó graves problemas de acceso al agua debido a la sequía prolongada y la falta de infraestructura, lo que dejó a los residentes sin acceso local a agua potable o electricidad. Sin la provisión de estas necesidades básicas, los residentes enfrentaron desafíos tanto desde el punto de vista económico como de salud comunitaria.

 

Proyecto SOURCE

Con el financiamiento de campañas de RSE del Proyecto SWELECT, International Justice Mission y SOURCE instalaron ocho hidropaneles en Athiyanam para proporcionar un suministro de agua potable limpio, seguro y resiliente a las familias de la aldea. Hoy, con el renovado sentido de esperanza que brinda el acceso local al agua potable, los residentes pueden continuar el proceso de sanación y enfocarse en desarrollar habilidades para prosperar en libertad.

Hydropanel General Installation Requirements:

  • Sunny mounting location – The SOURCE Hydropanel works best in full sun. Unobstructed sunlight required at least 5 hours per day. Avoid placing under shading objects such as trees, buildings, etc.
  • 4 x 6 foot (1.2 x 1.8 meters) mounting area per Hydropanel.
  • Minimum clearance of 1ft (30cm) in front of and behind the panels to allow access for service.
  • Minimum 3 inches (8 cm) between hydropanels from side to side within an array.
  • SOURCE Hydropanels must be installed at least 15 feet (5 meters) away from windows and should be positioned considering hydropanel sound with respect to living spaces.
  • SOURCE Hydropanels must be level from side-to-side with a maximum deviation of 20mm.
  • Hydropanel must be South Facing (180°) for locations in the Northern Hemisphere, or North facing (0°) for locations in the Southern Hemisphere.
  • The installation surface must be level. For example, a flat roof, or level ground.
  • Roof mounted hydropanels must be at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from the edge of any structure.
  •  
  • Adequate structural integrity of the roof is required. Do not install on a roof that is damaged or otherwise insufficient to hold the weight and wind loads of the hydropanel.
  •  
  • Consider whether there is space for a crane to set up and lift the hydropanels to their mounting location.
  • Ground locations should be firm, level, and evenly composed. The hydropanel can be placed on blocks, concrete, or mounted to lumber to provide a stable base to sit on.
  •  
  • Consider factors like soil composition, and how to manage erosion or plant growth over time.
  •  
  • Avoid installing the hydropanel where they may be wetted from irrigation sprinklers.
  •  
  • Ensure the hydropanel is raised above the specified flood plain.
  •  
  • Hydropanel should be anchored to the ground or sufficiently ballasted to prevent movement or damage from high winds.

Hydropanel Calculator

The amount of water you consume will determine how many panels you’ll need and the size of tanks we recommend. Use our calculator below for our panel and tank recommendation.

Each panel produces on average 180 bottles per month (16.9 oz bottles). For a more accurate estimation based on your location use this tool.
