Submersible pump. All it takes is electricity.

And electricity magically appears anywhere there is an outlet.

It doesn’t cost anything to charge your Tesla, either...

10,000 foot head to lift against with a multi-stage centripetal pump? A more modest effort—3hp will lift a little more than a gallon a minute from +1300 foot. About $1.90 per cubic meter in electricity at $.15 kWh. Perhaps a walking-beam pump would be more efficient?

Desalination is less than 1/4 the costs.
