Formosa water infrastructure expansion

Overview

The government of Formosa is working to expand potable water production capacity for the capital city through the repowering of the Toma Norte plant.

Due to a lack of national funding, the project is being financed by Aguas de Formosa S.A. The initiative involves modernizing four pumping units along with their electrical, command, and automation systems to address urban growth and rising consumption. While the North Plant currently supplies approximately 70% of the city’s coverage area with 2.8 million cubic meters per month, technical projections suggest demand will reach 5.4 million cubic meters per month by 2035. The project is being executed in two stages, with the first stage already completed.

Recent developments confirm that the provincial government continues to utilize its own funds through Aguas de Formosa S.A. to advance the repowering of the Toma Norte plant to meet these long-term demand projections.
