Yes. Scalability is in the works
It's definitely a good project, no doubt about it. Now how to move it forward - test it out in the real world and provide access to those who need it - is the question.

Sorry to be the wet blanket at this party, but I instinctively doubt the premise. Solar distillation producing cheaper water than drinking water? I would want to look at the details.

But on a commercial scale of 50 MGD? I don't think so.
