Project Progress

The Adelaide Desalination Project will begin delivering water in December 2010, ramping up to 100 billion litres a year by late 2012. Construction on the plant will continue after the first water – about 15 million litres a day – is delivered.

This section will be updated from time to time with images from the construction site, where work is full steam ahead, and other photographs relevant to the project.
