As a part of its ecomagination commitment and in line with its long-term recovery efforts for the tsunami-hit, General Electric today announced that it has developed a solar-powered fresh water purification system to assist the relocation efforts of tsunami-affected remote villages in southern India... The company recently shipped 14 of these new solar-powered fresh water reverse osmosis purification systems, which will support the drinking water needs of close to 2,000 people from relocated villages. Four units have already been installed in February, while the remaining 10 units are being installed during the second half of 2006. Two of the first four units were assembled near Chennai, for the Kanathur Reddy Kuppam Village and the Sulerikadu Village, and one unit each was set up near Thirukadaiyur Village and Auroville, adjacent to affected villages.
