METROPAC Water Investments Corp. (Metro Pacific Water) said it targets to complete the Philippines’ largest desalination plant in Iloilo City by 2026.
“We’re all focused on that. That will be the biggest desalination for the Philippines. So far, the target is to have it operational by 2026,” Metro Pacific Water President and Chief Executive Officer Christopher Andrew B. Pangilinan said on the sidelines of an event on Tuesday.
In June, the company signed an agreement with France-based Suez, a water and waste management solutions provider, for the construction of a P5-billion desalination plant capable of producing 66.5 million liters of water per day.
Mr. Pangilinan said that the project is slated to begin construction in the latter part of the third quarter.
