Al-Ayoun, the capital of Western Sahara and its largest city, is preparing to expand its seawater desalination system with the addition of a third unit. This expansion reflects the increasing need for water resources capable of keeping pace with the region’s population and economic growth. Morocco’s National Office of Electricity and Potable Water is currently completing a study to expand the existing plant. The planned third unit will have an estimated capacity of 300 liters per second. This project underlines efforts to bolster water security in Al-Ayoun, Western Sahara, amidst growing demand. The expansion aims to ensure a sustainable water supply for both residents and the burgeoning economy of the area. Hespress reports this development as a significant step for the region.
