Water Project
Fairaction’s plan is to use solar technology throughout Nigeria’s water system. using solar power incorporates sustainability and cost effectiveness into the project. It costs $10,000 USD to build one solar powered borehole which will serve approximately 500 people for a minimum of 20 years. The following project budget illustrates how it costs sponsors and funders only $0.0027 per beneficiary to provide a day of clean drinking water.
- Cost of building a solar power borehole: $10,000 USD
- Life span of a borehole: 20 years (20*365= 7,300 days)
- Number of beneficiaries per borehole: 500 people
- Cost of clean water for one day per beneficiary: 10,000/7,3000 = $1.37
- Cost per beneficiary per day: 1.37/500 = $0.0027
- Cost of building a solar power borehole: $10,000 USD
- Life span of a borehole: 20 years (20*365= 7,300 days)
- Number of beneficiaries per borehole: 500 people
- Cost of clean water for one day per beneficiary: 10,000/7,3000 = $1.37
- Cost per beneficiary per day: 1.37/500 = $0.0027
Project Implementation
Our grassroots project team includes competent local professionals with many years of experience in water project implementation. These on the ground technicians have developed boreholes in Nigeria for oven ten years and are eagerly awaiting funding to implement more water solutions. This team is prepared to build as many solar powered boreholes as can be funded. As noted, each solar powered borehole costs $10,000 USD to develop. The following table shows the activities and budget breakdown for completing one solar powered borehole.
| S/N | Activities | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mobilisation to and from site | $200 |
| 2 | Geophysical Survey | $300 |
| 3 | Drilling Operations | $1000 |
| 4 | Installing casing and gravel packing of boreholes | $1000 |
| 5 | Installing a well head | $200 |
| 6 | Developing and flushing of boreholes | $200 |
| 7 | Cleaning up of site | $200 |
| 8 | Water Analysis | $400 |
| 9 | Tank fitting, supply, installation and commissioning of pumping system | $3000 |
| 10 | The Solar pump and kits/panel | $2000 |
| 11 | Human Resources | $500 |
| 12 | Reserved for repair, maintenance and servicing | $1000 |
