This technology will also provide additional rainfall for many countries and industries worldwide. The company has developed relationships with world leaders and private organizations to build a network of potential clientele.
Water is becoming scarce, affecting global ecosystems like energy, agriculture, and logistics.

About RET
RET’s website states the company’s overall mission and philosophy. The company uses weather modification technology to maintain and restore water ecosystems globally. This technology allows rainfall to be regenerated in regions with a decline in the precious resource. No chemicals are used to provide additional surface water, supporting the natural processes of aquifer recharge.
Furthermore, RET has developed the first commercial ionization rainfall generation solution. This technology replicates natural rainfall and boosts its potential through ionization platforms.
