For over 15 impactful years, Alexander von Welczeck has been a stalwart figure in the Climate Technology and Renewables industries, leaving an indelible mark as an impact entrepreneur. His journey, rooted in a passion for sustainability, has been a driving force in the global sustainability revolution.

The spark for von Welczeck’s commitment to sustainability ignited in 2006 when he delved into Al Gore’s influential book, ‘An Inconvenient Truth.’ This transformative encounter led him to embrace the mantle of a climate and sustainability entrepreneur, setting the course for his remarkable journey.

Currently serving as the Chairman & President of SkyH2O, a pioneering ClimateTech company, von Welczeck leads a business focused on water technology, products, and services. SkyH2O stands as a testament to his dedication, built upon unique and proven Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) systems, offering ‘The Ultimate in Water Sustainability.’

NetZeroWater Solutions Through AWG Innovation

SkyH2O specializes in providing Renewable Water, designated as NetZeroWater, offering unparalleled water sustainability, security, and resiliency while maintaining a commitment to environmental responsibility. The company is at the forefront of creating a new sustainable infrastructure investment asset class through the innovation, advancement, and scaling of Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) technology.

SkyH2O’s AWG Systems and Projects are designed to deliver the utmost in water sustainability, security, and resiliency, particularly tailored for larger commercial, industrial, and government applications. The approach emphasizes harmony with nature and environmental responsibility.

The diverse applications of SkyH2O’s AWG technology encompass bottling, disaster relief, hospitals, military operations, mining activities, hotels, resorts, and communities seeking sustainability, including NetZeroWater. These solutions are especially pertinent in regions experiencing water scarcity or grappling with water contamination issues.

The flagship product, AWG MAXIMUS 4260, is engineered to produce an impressive 10,800 liters per day (LPD) of fresh, healthy water. This system is designed for effective integration into AWG Projects, with the capability to cluster multiple units, often reaching a daily production of 100,000 LPD, marking a significant advancement in water sustainability.

One of the notable advantages of AWG is its game-changing nature, providing a new water resource without the need for proximity to sensitive oceanfront areas or estuaries commonly associated with desalination systems. SkyH2O’s AWG solutions can be powered by clean renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, fostering a sustainable and environmentally responsible approach to water generation.

Revolutionizing Water Management

SkyH2O’s AWG MAXIMUS 4260™ represents an advanced atmospheric water generation system specifically designed for commercial, industrial, and government applications. This cutting-edge system is capable of producing approximately 10,500 liters per day (over 3,000 gallons per day) of fresh potable water that complies with WHO standards.

The flexibility of the AWG MAXIMUS 4260™ is showcased by its ability to function either as a stand-alone system or as a fundamental component within larger AWG projects. Starting at 50,000 liters per day, this system offers unlimited expansion potential to meet varying water requirements.

SkyH2O operates as an industrial-grade water generating systems provider and independent water provider (IWP). Leveraging revolutionary Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) technology, SkyH2O aims to supply fresh potable water to water districts, municipalities, and large commercial and industrial water users. The AWG technology is disruptive, enabling rapid deployment (typically under 1 year) in a distributed manner, addressing specific water needs, particularly in regions where it is most essential. This approach ensures water security, self-reliance, and independence, marking a transformative era in water management often referred to as “Water 4.0”.

Triple Impact Mission

von Welczeck emphasizes that SkyH2O operates as a triple impact business, focusing on People, Planet, and Profit without compromising on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) principles for greater profit. The urgent water crisis, encompassing both scarcity and toxicity, is a pressing concern. In the United States, for instance, 45% of tap water is already considered toxic. Looking ahead to 2050, approximately 5.2 billion people globally are expected to face water stress.

SkyH2O tackles these water challenges by offering various Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) solutions, including the AWG MAXIMUS 4260, AWG MICRO STATION, SKYH2O STATIONs, and upcoming products like AWG WaterSecurityTower and AWG RoofTopBuildingIntegrated. The company is committed to innovating, advancing, and scaling AWG for larger commercial, industrial, and government applications. AWG stands as NetZeroWater, providing renewable water that mimics nature, has no adverse environmental impact, and delivers fresh, healthy water in most locations at almost any time.

You mention your expertise in turning “Grey to Blue-Green Infrastructure.” Could you explain this concept and how it aligns with creating a balance with nature? I am a professional supplying the building industry since 1986. I was a pioneer in the American solar industry co-founding Solar Power Powers (“SPP”) in 2006. Since then all of my business activities have been creating and proving “green and clean” sustainability and resiliency solutions.

Collaborative Approach to Global Water Solutions

SkyH2O is dedicated to conducting all its activities in the most environmentally responsible way, without any compromises. SkyH2O embraces an open and collaborative business model, actively inviting professionals, strategic partners, and impact investors to join forces and accelerate business and project development not only in America but on a global scale.

Presently, SkyH2O is engaged in various collaborations, including the development of SkyH2O STATION projects in Texas, Saudi Arabia, and Malta. Additionally, the company is involved in Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) systems manufacturing in Mexico. The collaborative approach reflects SkyH2O’s commitment to addressing water challenges and making a positive impact across different regions.

Vision to Alleviate Water Scarcity Globally

Since commencing his career in 1986, von Welczeck has amassed extensive experience in conducting business across 22 different countries. Expressing enthusiasm, he aims to deliver SkyH2O fresh water solutions to the world from the ClimateTech hub in California.

According to von Welczeck, the primary focus of SkyH2O is the deployment of SkyH2O STATIONs, also known as “Micro Wateries,” in locations grappling with water scarcity across America, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. Over the next five years, the ambitious plan is to establish more than 100 SkyH2O STATIONs, requiring an investment of approximately $3.0 billion. This initiative underscores the company’s commitment to addressing water challenges in regions facing significant water stress.

Catalyst for Sustainability Impact

von Welczeck imparts valuable advice to those aspiring to make a positive impact in the sustainability space. He emphasizes that everything begins with discovering one’s purpose. Purpose serves as the catalyst for passion, and this passion, in turn, generates the energy necessary to drive success. This insight underscores the significance of aligning personal purpose with endeavors in the sustainability field, highlighting the transformative power of purpose-driven work.
