Vivant Water signs 25-year supply deal with MCWD to address Cebu's water shortage
Vivant Corp.'s water unit has signed a 25-year supply deal with the Metropolitan Cebu Water District to address Metro Cebu's water shortage.
The joint venture agreement allows Vivant Water to utilize its desalination plant in Cordova, Cebu, which will produce up to 20 million liters of clean and potable water daily for distribution by MCWD.
This partnership was initiated due to the water crisis declared in early 2024 when Cebu City faced a significant daily water deficit caused by El Niño.
Vivant Corp.'s CEO, Arlo Sarmiento, emphasized the company's commitment to investing in essential infrastructure that supports sustainable development and improves everyday living conditions.
The desalination plant aims to provide a scalable solution to meet growing demand for water in Metro Cebu due to population growth and climate change impacts.
