With the construction of the Águilas desalination plant (2011–2013), we demonstrated our ability to tackle highly complex technical challenges and consolidated expertise that we have since applied to many other projects around the world.
Noelia España, Fernando Donate, and Alberto Morales help us explore this project and its impact on the surrounding environment as part of our Sacyr 40th-anniversary campaign.
This infrastructure ensures the water resources needed for agriculture in the Region of Murcia, one of the pillars of its economy.
This project is not just about water; it’s also about talent, vision, and the ability to anticipate future challenges. It’s about driving sustainable solutions through advanced energy recovery technologies and efficient systems that allow us to go further with a lower environmental impact.
More than a decade later, the Águilas desalination plant—the second-largest in Spain—remains a benchmark and an example of how the innovation, expertise, and commitment of our Sacyr Agua teams can turn a critical challenge into a solution for the future.
