NewsWire -- Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. (OTC:
RAKR) is working aggressively to position itself to be a leader
in the multi-trillion-dollar global Water-as-a-Service (WaaS)
industry. The partnership will produce and distribute bottled water
using Rainmaker’s Solar Air-to-Water machines and is estimated to
produce up to an annual 27 million USD in revenue when all required
50 machines are deployed.
Since August 2019, The Bahamas has endured the devastating
aftermath of Dorian – the Category 5 Hurricane that swept across
the Atlantic. Dorian hit Grand Bahama, The Bahamas largest island,
with 297 kilometer-per-hour winds and a 9-meter storm surge that
caused overwhelming destruction. Saltwater overflowed Grand
Bahama’s drinking wells that nearly 55,000 residents depend upon.
A March 9th article issued by
Miami’s WLRN explains that three of the four water
treatment plants on Grand Bahama went underwater, one of which
supplied fresh water to 60 percent of the island. Six months after
the hurricane, their tap water was still salty, far worse than
saltwater concentration experienced after hurricanes Matthew and
Irma.
Local partner Eric Strachan stated, “The Bahamian people face
adversity time and time again in the weeks after these horrific
storms. Dorian however has left the island without clean drinking
water for nearly one year. Rainmaker’s cost-effective, sustainable,
and modular technology can easily be deployed to help our
situation, and Bahamian Spring Water has the ability to distribute
Rainmaker’s high-quality drinking water to those in need.”
The partnership expects to require fifty Rainmaker Air-to-Water
machines, which harvest fresh water from airborne humidity using
zero chemicals, phased in over the next 3 years. The fifty solar
capable Air-to-Water units will produce a combined volume of up to
250,000 liters of water per day, which Bahamians can access for a
low rate of 12-30 cents per liter. The varied price per unit is
based on the packaging and delivery required.
Rainmaker CEO Michael Skinner commented, “Forming local partner
relationships is imperative to the success of battling water crises
at the local level. Eric Strachan’s local connections and resources
in The Bahamas matched with our easily deployable, turn-key clean
water solutions is how we will reach populations living in water
scarcity.”
On July 15th, Rainmaker announced a merger
agreement with Sphere 3D (NASDAQ: ANY) expected to close
in Fall 2020. Rainmaker shareholders will receive 1/3 of a share of
Sphere 3D for each whole share of Rainmaker exchanged and one-third
of a warrant or option for each whole warrant or option then held
by such Rainmaker shareholder. Sphere 3D’s name will change to
Rainmaker Worldwide Inc. and intends to trade under the symbol
‘RAIN’.
