Doubling the capacity of the Doraleh desalination plant
The Doraleh desalination plant
Djibouti plans to extend the capacity of the desalination plant to 45,000 m3 per day after the full completion, The plant will eventually supply 500,000 people in Djibouti.
Inaugurated in 2021, it is the country’s first desalination plant and one of the only wind-powered water treatment plants in Africa, with an initial capacity of 22,500 cu metres of water per day. The plant’s output is conveyed through a 9-km pipeline to the 5000-cu-metre Farah Had reservoir, before being distributed to some 250,000 Djiboutians, or roughly 40% of the population of Djibouti City.
As of 2023, 40 percent of the Djibouti city’s water comes from the Doraleh desalination plant.

The Doraleh desalination plant.
The European Investment Bank (EIB) has agreed to provide €79 million (US$88 million) in financing to support the development of desalination and wastewater treatment infrastructure in Djibouti.
The funds will be used to double the production capacity of the Doraleh desalination plant and expand three wastewater treatment plants at Doraleh and Djibouti city.

Ranking Africa’s Most Water-Stressed Countries in 2023.
The ten most water-stressed African countries are Egypt, Libya, Botswana, Tunisia, Namibia, South Africa, Morocco, Eritrea, Algeria and Niger, according to reliable sources.
I am surprised by Botswana's water stress.
