ACWA Power to develop US$680 million independent water plant in Sharjah
Saudi-listed ACWA Power has inked a deal with the Sharjah Electricity, Water and Gas Authority (SEWA) to develop the Hamriyah Independent Water Project (IWP) in Sharjah, UAE.
The Hamriyah IWP will be developed using seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) technology for water desalination and incorporate the latest post-treatment, filtration, and disinfection technologies and generate nearly 272,000 cubic meters per day (m3/day) of desalinated water by Q2 2027. The plant’s capacity will reach 410,000 m3/day of desalinated water by Q3 2028, producing potable water for 1.4 million people. ACWA Power’s scope for the project includes the design, build, ownership, operations and maintenance of the plant. The site has existing shared intake and outfall facilities.
The Hamriyah IWP aligns with Sharjah’s water strategy, which aims to enhance water security, support comprehensive development, and ensure sustainable access to clean water for the Emirate’s residents.
