Energy Recovery, Inc. (Nasdaq: ERII) today announced the company has signed contracts to supply its PX® Pressure Exchanger® to seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination projects in Morocco, totaling $27.5 million. These contracts have previously been reported in the company’s financial guidance, and all orders are expected to be fulfilled in 2024.

North Africa continues to present a strong demand for SWRO desalination. Morocco is facing a years long drought that drained the country’s reservoirs to 25% full earlier this year, and the country is currently working towards a goal to supply half of its drinking water from desalination by 2030. When completed, these projects will supply over one million cubic meters per day of potable water for municipal and agricultural use – enough water for more than 600,000 Moroccans.

“Desalination is the only drought-proof source of water, and it is vital that arid regions around the world such as North Africa secure access to freshwater by investing in a diversified portfolio of water treatment technologies including energy-efficient SWRO,” said Rodney Clemente, Energy Recovery Senior Vice President of Water. “These contracts include one of the largest desalination projects in North Africa, which will help close the gap between the existing water supply and Morocco’s growing freshwater demands. In addition to supplying drinking water, over half of the projected desalination production is earmarked towards the agricultural sector, making desalination and our PX devices a pivotal actor in creating a sustainable ecosystem."

The PX can reduce energy consumption in desalination by as much as 60% and offers the lowest lifecycle cost of any energy recovery device on the market. When these desalination projects are completed and operating, Energy Recovery estimates that the PX will prevent more than 475,000 tons of carbon emissions from entering the atmosphere each year, the equivalent of removing more than 100,000 passenger cars from the road.
