Ahhh I understand how remote you mean now. I was about to suggest a fuel
cell, as in separating water into hydrogen and oxygen through electroysis.
But if water is in short supply that could kill that one. Actually... With
the water separated into hydrogen and oxygen... Wouldn't evaporate would it
;-) Would need an element of pressurisation though.

Mmmm, you could have a system set up which captures what water does rain,
seperates it into H and O. Then when you go back weeks later you have
electricity on demand with water as the by-product.

Oh the ideas... ;-)
