BELEAF, in collaboration with RHDHV, has carried out a pre-feasibility study on a concept for a project to produce 80,000 m3/day of drinking water from the Baricho spring field, which transports and supplies water to the coastal cities of Malindi, Kilifi-Mariakani and Mombasa. It has also been investigated whether the energy required to pump water from boreholes and transport it through transport pipelines can be generated by using alternative energy sources such as the sun, wind or biomethane.
For the pre-feasibility study, Pim investigated which renewable energy sources are technically and commercially feasible in or near the project. This involved looking at solar, wind, biomethane, storage and a combination of these sustainable solutions. To this end, Pim performed various revenue calculations and drew up various business case models. The results of this, and a site visit conducted by RHDHV, led to a SWOT analysis to ultimately arrive at the best solution. In short, a challenging and substantively very nice project to which BELEAF has contributed.
