Ffryes Beach RO Plant Comes On Stream Today adding another million gallon of water

2

Water production in Antigua is set to increase significantly this weekend as the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) confirms the completion of the expanded reverse osmosis (RO) plant at Ffryes Beach, along with its newly installed supply lines.

Starting today, Friday, the facility will begin generating one million gallons of water per day, addressing the needs of communities across the island, with a focus on the southern region.

The activation of the Ffryes Beach RO plant was initially planned for Tuesday, January 28. APUA’s distribution strategy involves directing water northward toward St. John’s via one pump, while another will supply areas in the south, including Johnson’s Point, Cades Bay, and Old Road.

This expansion is part of a government partnership with Florida-based Seven Seas Water Group to enhance island-wide water production.

  1. It’s great to see progress with the Ffryes Beach RO Plant coming online, adding much-needed capacity to Antigua and Barbuda’s water supply. This will hopefully help alleviate the water shortages that have been affecting communities. That said, I would like to know more about the long-term sustainability of this project. Reverse osmosis plants require significant energy, so are there plans to integrate renewable energy sources to reduce costs and environmental impact? Ensuring affordability and efficiency should be just as much a priority as increasing water production.

  2. A new plant is great, but if leaks, inefficiencies, and inconsistent supply issues persist, the full benefits may not be realized.
