Desalination not a solution for the Algarve - The Portugal News

Desalination “not a solution” for the Algarve The Sustainable Water Platform (PAS) is against the capture of water from the Guadiana river and desalination to solve the problems of water shortages in the Algarve and has called on the people to contest these solutions. In a statement, PAS, which groups together environmental and heritage protection associations, showed its “disagreement with information that the transfer of water from Pomarão and the construction of one (or more) desalination plants are solutions to the Algarve’s water problem”. The capture of water from the Guadiana river at Pomarão, in the municipality of Mértola, district of Beja, and the construction of desalination plants are included in the Resilience and Recovery Plan (RRP) presented by the Government, but the platform considers that these projects will only serve to feed irrigated agriculture and increase the cost of water for the population.
