Algarve desalination costs almost double – Portugal

n the early days, Águas do Algarve talked about the project costing “around €50 million”. That figure is now €90 million – the funding of which is to be covered by recovery and resilience funding (RRP) from Brussels.

The plan envisages an initial capacity for conversion of seawater into drinking/irrigation water of 16 cubic hectometres (meaning 16 million cubic metres).

In a statement, Águas do Algarve said the project – due for completion by the end of 2026 – will be prepared to increase capacity to 24 cubic hectometres per year.

Critical issues of desalination plants on the islands – Sicily

Water is a common good but at a high price for the smaller islands. The study „Environmental and economic costs of desalination“ was illustrated in the Press Room of the Chamber of Deputies with a case study on the smaller Sicilian islands:
• the average cost of producing desalinated water from fixed plants is around 12 euros/m3;
• the Lipari and Lampedusa plants consume energy for 2.8 million euros per year, with total annual management costs exceeding 12 million euros to produce 1.5 million m3/year of water.
