OUR MISSION


ENVIRONMENTAL
CHALLENGE
Global water scarcity and climate change are interlinked crises impacting billions of people worldwide. As greenhouse gases accumulate, the oceans warm and acidify, triggering extreme weather, collapsing food webs, and escalating water stress. Concurrently, population growth and rising living standards are putting unprecedented pressure on already limited freshwater resources.
The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that 10 gigatonnes of net CO₂ removal per year are needed by 2050 to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C or 2°C. Meanwhile, the UN projects that by 2025, two-thirds of the global population may face water shortages. Kepler’s integrated solution directly addresses both of these challenges, offering a sustainable and scalable approach to environmental restoration and water security.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY
Kepler is at the forefront of a new paradigm in water security, delivering carbon-negative desalinated water and renewable energy to coastal regions. Our innovative approach harmonizes economic activity with Earth's natural processes, creating a framework where sustainable water production and atmospheric-ocean carbon cycle management converge.
Our innovative approach can supply the fresh water needs of small countries, large islands, and major metropolitan regions while simultaneously removing vast quantities of CO₂ from the ocean-atmosphere system. This dual-purpose solution creates multiple revenue streams while addressing critical infrastructure needs and geopolitical challenges while providing economic benefits through the creation of durable product streams and renewable resources.
KEPLER'S SOLUTION
Kepler is developing a fully autonomous network of geo-positioned deep-water spar platforms, each supporting 2.5 hectares of space for integrated desalination and carbon capture operations. Our multifaceted, state-of-the-art approach combines cutting-edge technologies for ocean thermal energy conversion with solar, wind, and wave power to form a robust, renewable energy supply.
This energy powers a multi-stage desalination process, producing commercial quantities of fresh water, biologically-derived products, renewable energy, and valuable co-produced products such as carbonate minerals, salts, and marketable gases (CO₂, O₂, N₂). Our multifaceted, state-of-the-art approach also captures carbon from both the ocean and atmosphere while safeguarding marine ecosystems. Rigorous parallel monitoring protocols ensure that Kepler maintains or enhances the surrounding environment, fostering improved ecological systems and refugia near each platform.
By leveraging these innovative technologies, Kepler aims to sustainably meet the freshwater needs of coastal nations, large islands, and expansive urban regions. Our vision integrates environmental restoration with economic growth, contributing to a more resilient and equitable future for the planet
