Sun Powered ” SunGlacier Sculpture ” Uses Air and The Sunshine to Produce Water

For the last six years, Ap Verheggen has been trying to use air and the sunshine to produce water. The Hague is the location of the water fountain that is the result of his work. The 8-metre sculpture is made from everyday items that are easy to obtain and are mainly metal and wood. Solar energy is used to run the dehumidifier and according to Verheggen, the invention will be important in areas that do not have much water.




Up to 8 million people die each day as a result of water-related illnesses and this is not expected to drop with climate change being the problem. The idea of Inhabitat is to inspire others to help provide clean water.

The metal stand topped with cedar wood has a rechargeable battery pack and the water that is produced is sent out of the upper part of the structure. It has been determined that sunny days see the best production. Veheggan hopes to increase the 2 litres of water per SQ.meter of solar to 8 litres. For anyone who wants to see the sculpture that is hoping to be the start of making water available, they will have to visit the Museum of the Sculptures before October 2016.

It is known that solar water will need to go through a process of filtration as well as having minerals added to it before it can be classed as drinking water. The good news is that off-the-shelf products can lead to the production of clean water.
