01Secure long-term water supply for coastal cities, communities and islands.
02Reliable freshwater capacity for water-intensive operations.
The Maldives is a country of low coral islands with almost no rivers or lakes. The thin layer of groundwater under each island is easily spoiled by salt, so most drinking water already comes from desalination plants on land. The atolls rise straight out of deep ocean, which puts water at 450 metres or more close to shore. That is the setting Flocean was built for.
