The region now accounts for 25 percent of the desalination water in Spain.

The spokesman for the regional government in Murcia, Fernando de la Cierva, has said today that with the approval for the construction of the new La Azohía e Isla Plana desalination plant in Cartagena, the Murcia region will soon be treating more water than either California or Israel.

25% of the desalinated water in Spain is created in Murcia and if that from Valencia is added the percentage rises to 50%.

De la Cierva said that the regional government was also doing what it could to modernise the water infrastructure in the region and to carry out the recycling of water wherever possible.
