How WETA Works

Ionization Technology Enhances Precipitation from Natural Weather Systems

1. Ionizing the atmosphere

Corona discharge ionizes atmospheric aerosols via charge transfer

2. Wind does the heavy lifting

Wind carries ions up to 44 miles in plumes to cloud layers

3. Ions stimulates precip growth

Ion plumes enhance cloud condensation nuclei, stimulating precip growth

WETA systems work with nature to enhance precipitation when atmospheric conditions are favorable - operating autonomously year-round and maximizing every opportunity to turn natural weather patterns into measurable water supply for your community.

Compact Footprint, Expansive Coverage

Coverage Impact Zone

Site Layout Requirements

A single WETA system influences precipitation across up to 230,000 acres (360 square miles) white requiring minimal land footprint. Systems can be installed on level ground or adapted to ridges, slopes, and hills – anywhere with adequate clearance and upwind positioning relative to your target area.
