Minister of Equipment and Water on CNN: Rain reliance no longer feasible
The CNN network highlighted that Morocco relies on seawater desalination as a strategy to confront challenges of drought and water scarcity, aiming to secure about 60% of its water needs by 2030. The national program includes investments worth $14 billion to build desalination plants, including the Casablanca-Settat plant, which is expected to reach a capacity of 300 billion liters annually. This facility will supply water to approximately 7.5 million people and contribute to irrigating agricultural lands. Morocco also connects desalination operations with renewable energy sources to reduce costs and lower its carbon footprint. The country aims to enhance sustainability and resilience in water resource management in the face of climate change.
