Vivant Water, a unit of utilities conglomerate Vivant Corp., laid out a comprehensive approach to harnessing seawater as a sustainable and reliable water source.
Vivant Water was invited to take part in the panel for a plenary discussion on water security and sanitation in the 30th Philippine Water Works Association (PWWA) International Conference & Exhibition in Boracay Island.
The event featured an impressive lineup of distinguished speakers, including government officials, water utility experts and environmental advocates to discuss the urgency of implementing climate resilient and sustainable water and wastewater management practices.
Among the conference’s highlights was the compelling plenary session led by lawyer Jess Anthony Garcia, chief executive of Vivant Water.
Garcia addressed the growing need for resilient water infrastructure in the face of climate change and water scarcity.
Garcia discussed his forward-thinking topic, “Integrating Seawater for a Resilient Water Future.”
“At Vivant Water, we are working to integrate desalination technology into local water systems – sufficient to meet the needs of at least 100,000 people in Metro Cebu,” Garcia said.
He underscored the importance of diversifying potable water resources and how the collaboration of private and public sectors is detrimental to ensure water security for generations.
“We aim to protect the region’s limited freshwater resources by reducing pressure on groundwater aquifers. Through this initiative, the company hopes to create a climate-resilient future that safeguards Cebu’s future” Garcia said.
His talk reinforced the conference’s overarching theme of advancing climate resilience and sustainability in the water sector.
Through its active participation in the PWWA International Conference 2024, Vivant Water reaffirmed its role as a leader in creating resilient and adaptive water management strategies.
As the company continues to provide solutions to our changing world, it is positioned to benefit both local and global communities for years to come.
Vivant Water focuses on delivering resilient and sustainable water management systems, including desalination, wastewater treatment and integrated water resource management.
