Water from Hadera desalination plant enters National Water Carrier

The Hadera plant will produce over 100 million cubic meters of water per year. It joins two other desalination plants already in operation, one of equal size in Ashkelon and a smaller one at Palmahim.

...The goal is to have 600 million cubic meters of desalinated water being produced annually by 2013. Current household demand is about 750 million cubic meters per year. Once the Hadera plant begins to operate at full capacity, Israel will receive more water from desalination than from Lake Kinneret.
