Saudi Minister of Environment, Water, and Agriculture, Abdul Rahman Al-Fadli, confirmed that the national water strategy has focused on enhancing private sector participation through the privatization of water production, treatment, transmission, and storage activities, aiming to improve efficiency and attract investments exceeding 60 billion riyals. As a result, non-renewable groundwater consumption has been reduced by nearly 50%, the capacity for desalinated water production has increased to 16 million cubic meters per day, access to safe drinking water has reached 100% of the population, and storage capacity has been expanded by over 125%. The goal of this approach is to achieve a balance between supply and demand, while promoting sustainability and efficiency within the Saudi water sector.
