XPRIZE Water Scarcity is a $119 million, 5-year global competition made possible by the Mohamed bin Zayed Water Initiative.
XPRIZE Water Scarcity will generate novel seawater desalination technologies that will be reliable, affordable, and sustainable, increasing access to clean water.
This prize is designed to drive widespread access to clean water by creating reliable, sustainable, and affordable seawater desalination systems. Competing teams will develop new desalination technologies to unlock access to Earth’s ocean water year round, helping drive a world where clean water is equitably and sustainably abundant, and enabling people and the environment to prosper. Let’s rethink our approach to water access to create a more sustainable future. Email waterscarcity@xprize.org or learn more here.
