King Fisher Village

The first Eco Boutique Hotel in Cape Verde

Looking over the Atlantic Ocean, the King Fisher Village on the island of Santiago in Cape Verde has become an eco resort by choosing Genius Watter as its go-to partner for the creation of new energy- and water-efficient systems.

A zero-emission solar water and power system that meets sustainability goals while cutting costs considerably.

Thanks to our project, the King Fisher Village can now use and offer its guests sustainably produced energy and high-quality drinking water made from seawater, slashing running costs by 85% and cutting its CO2 emissions by 92 tonnes a year.

The context

The resort sits on an island where water scarcity is a serious longstanding issue: suffice to say, it rains less than a week a year on average.

Consequently, they needed to be able to count on a solution that would meet both their need for a constant daily supply of clean drinking water, and their need to optimize costs by reining in high water and energy expenses.

The property was very much committed to achieving these goals, which tied in with their transition to full environmental sustainability.

In Genius Watter, the King Fisher Village has found the ideal partner to meet all these key requirements, thanks to our long-term, sustainable end-to-end approach, with a patented solar-powered water desalination technology that yields excellent results.

Furthermore, the drinking water supplied directly to guests has significantly reduced the need to use plastic bottles, thus further reducing the facility’s environmental impact.
