Bredenoord and Rainmaker were invited to join an innovative development program called Fieldlab Smartbase 1.0, which resulted in choosing the MD Water Power unit for Mission-Critical Military Base Water Supply.

The Dutch military participates in multiple UN missions and has served in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is currently active in a UN peacekeeping mission in Mali to fight local terrorist insurgents.

In these missions, the military learned that it is essential to minimize supply lines and any local dependencies to increase troop safety and maximize operational efficiency.

The MD Water Power Unit – a purpose-built solution to military specifications

Rainmaker’s core Water-to-Water technology will be combined with Bredenoord’s state-of-the-art military-grade generators in a purpose-built containerized solution, built by Bredenoord.

Key specification criteria of the MD Water Power Unit, include low energy and maintenance requirements, reduced cost of water, fast deployment, mobility and operational efficiency.

Replacing current reverse osmosis systems

The ultimate objective is to replace the current reverse osmosis systems with Rainmaker-Bredenoord units. Each unit can provide up to 25 m3 (25,000 liters) of pure drinking water and 35 kW of electricity daily under all conditions without any power grid connection.

This self-contained, low-maintenance solution is designed to be suitable for global military deployments, NGOs and disaster relief situations.
