Water Carrier Work Begins
The Jordanian government will begin implementing the National Water Carrier Project on November 18, 2026. With a total cost of about $5.8 billion, the project will desalinate 300 million cubic meters of Red Sea water annually in Aqaba and transport it through 450 kilometers of pipelines, supplying around 40% of the Kingdom’s drinking water. The project includes a desalination plant, a pumping system, and solar farms with a capacity of 300 megawatts. Construction is expected to take about four years, with water pumping set to begin in the final quarter of 2030. The project aims to raise annual per-capita water availability from 60 to 110 cubic meters and increase water supply from one to three days a week.
