BlueGen Ltd., a water technology company owned by Israeli infrastructure investment firm Generation Capital, has secured the public tender to expand the Sabkha D desalination plant in Eilat. The project will nearly double the facility’s output—from 18 million to 38 million cubic meters of desalinated water annually—using advanced reverse osmosis technology.

The expansion, valued at NIS 425 million (approximately USD 126 million), is scheduled for completion within three and a half years. This marks a major milestone for BlueGen and reflects a broader strategic push to strengthen Israel’s water infrastructure and long-term supply resilience in the country’s arid southern region.

The project underlines BlueGen’s growing role in Israel’s national water strategy, reinforcing the use of cutting-edge technology to address regional sustainability challenges.
