ACCIONA has achieved a key milestone in the construction of the Al Khobar 2 desalination plant, ramping up production during final testing to a full capacity of 630,000 m³ of potable water per day, enough to meet the needs of 3 million people.
The company’s technology uses a strong base to turn CO2 in the atmosphere into minerals. It differentiates itself from other carbon capture projects in its ability to use its technology in combination with other industrial processes such as water desalination plants, as opposed to standalone carbon capture plants like those used by Climeworks in Iceland.
Saudi-located ACWA Power established the biggest water desalination volume in the firm’s history last year, allowing it to supply 5.5 million additional people in the Gulf Cooperation Council area each day.
The power generation company closed a record-breaking 2.4 million cm3/day of water desalination volume, in line with a press release, via four reverse osmosis megaprojects in the Middle East forcing ACWA power’s overall water volume higher to 6.4 million cubic meters.
Al Khobar 2 reverse osmosis desalination plant, designed and built by ACCIONA, will be one of the largest in Saudi Arabia, serving 3 million people, and the largest in the ACCIONA portfolio worldwide.

The Moroccan Minister of Equipment and Water, Nizar Baraka, is again the bearer of good news. After his announcement in September 2022 that the Casablanca-Settat desalination plant would be launched in mid-2023, Nizar Baraka is back with projects in El Jadida, Safi and the Oriental region. The construction of these three other plants will also be launched this year.
With a smaller capacity than that of the Casablanca-Settat plant (200 million m3 of water per year, extendable to 300 million m3 per year by 2030), the desalination plant to be set up in the Oriental region will […]
The firm added new production capacities of up to 2.4 million cubic meters per day of desalinated water through four reverse osmosis megaprojects in 2022, the statement added.
This increase is the largest annual addition in the field of desalinated water production in the company’s history, bringing the capacity to 6.4 million cubic meters across 16 projects in four countries.
The port authority’s guiding commission, in a heated, hourlong special meeting Tuesday, voted 5-2 in favor of paying $62,025 in permitting fees to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, effectively kicking off the process to seek permission to intake seawater for the proposed 50 million-gallon-per-day facility.
Spanish infrastructure major Acciona has achieved a key milestone in the construction of Al Khobar 2 desalination plant, ramping up production during final testing to its full capacity of 630,000 cu m of potable water per day, enough to meet the needs of three million people.
The Belmont Desalination Plant was announced last year as part of the Lower Hunter Water Security Plan and will have the capacity to pump up to 30 million litres of water per day, even during drought.
Minister reviews progress of the ₹1,516.82-crore project at Nemmeli and asks the CMWSSB officials to complete the work by July; Minister also visits the proposed site at Perur for building a 400 mld desalination plant
