Traditional cloudseeding involves the use of chemicals dispensed from aircraft at precise moments of raincloud formation, creating potential risks (such as environmental concerns and unintended downstream consequences, for example, small concentrations of chemical substances affecting cloudseeding-produced rain). Desalination plants offer an alternative technology for increasing the supply of potable water but such process is highly energy intensive, expensive and requires transportation from the coast to inland clients.

Ionization rainfall generation technology allows for lower operating costs at scale and provides a method that does not use chemicals in the rainfall generation process. Both chemical and ionic approaches have been utilized for weather modification, including rainfall generation, hail reduction, and cloud dispersal.

Historically, piloted cargo aircraft or drones delivered chemicals or ions into clouds at the right time in order to enhance rainfall. However, ionized rainfall generation technology is ground-based, capitalizing on natural updraft airflow. Based on third party trials in Oman, the operating range of RET’s ionized rainfall generation equipment is expected to be considerable, as it will be reliant upon natural updrafts to carry the ions into clouds with sufficient water vapor to condense and form rain droplets. Such third-party testing has demonstrated that the equipment’s reliance on natural updrafts would result in it being powered by a minimal source of energy, approximately 600kWh annually based on 100 hours of operation per month, which is approximately the amount required in one year by an average household oven. Moreover, as the technology is developed, RET intends to continue working on ways to maintain low and efficient energy usage.

Ionized rainfall generation technology does not allow rainfall to be created on a clear day. It may enhance rainfall when conditions are appropriate in the atmosphere and cloud formation is underway in an approximately 50-mile radius, according to third-party testing. The third-party experiments in Oman, using ionizers based on existing rainfall generation technology, indicate that the majority of the rainfall generation occurs approximately 70 miles from the ground-based ionizers. This range allows for placement of the equipment to optimize for the cost of land leases, as well as predominant wind flows.

By installing multiple systems at appropriate ranges away from the desired impact area, RET’s approach would allow for enhanced rainfall with high level, broad-based targeting, by synchronizing the ionization on-off with increasingly accurate weather information and forecasting. RET is in the process of partnering with ground-based radars for optimal and powerful real time weather forecasting data access.

In addition, RET expects
