Project Overview
The Alkimos Seawater Desalination Plant (ASDP) is a landmark infrastructure project in Western Australia, designed to strengthen Perth’s water security in response to declining rainfall and a growing population. Located within the Alkimos Water Precinct, north of Perth, the plant is strategically positioned adjacent to the existing Alkimos Wastewater Treatment Plant. Construction began in late 2023, with first water production expected by 2028. ASDP represents a significant investment in Western Australia’s future, addressing the dual challenges of climate change and urban growth through sustainable, long-term water infrastructure.
