A local company, Aqua Silos, owned by Floyd Chubane and Billy van Rooyen, has come up with a novel idea to convert these gigantic storage facilities into water purification plants and reservoirs to keep water flowing constantly to communities

A citizen-led initiative aims to create lasting solutions to the protracted water crisis and to generate electricity

This idea could not have come at a better time; South Africa is water-stressed as a result of drought, heatwaves and poor infrastructure. “The problem is further enhanced by the fact that most small towns and even bigger towns where there is an influx of people, do not have big enough conventional reservoirs or the ones they have are neglected or old. On one hand, the storage capacity is not enough to cope with demand, and on the other, the source of raw water is only one or two options,” Van Rooyen said.

Identified stations include Attridgeville Power Station, Rooiwal Power Station, Orlando Power Station, Grootvlei and Komati Power Station.

10 Billion Rands just for storage, let’s assume these were in the Northern Cape, what would be the source of water? 80 Million Rands to convert 1 Silo? I have so many questions.? ngungunyana
