IDE Technologies Secures the Sorek B Tender
KADIMA, Israel, June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- IDE Technologies, a world leader in water treatment solutions, was announced by the Tender Committee of Israel's Ministry of Finance as the winner of the Sorek B BOT tender, for the Design, Finance, Construction, Operation and Maintenance for 25 years of a 200 Million m3/year SWRO facility (average of 570 MLD) , which will be the largest desalination plant in Israel and one of the largest in the world.
In addition to offering a profoundly comprehensive and detailed design that met the tender's requirements in full, IDE Technologies has offered an exceptionally low water price of 1.45 NIS (equivalent to ~ USD 0.41/m3), which is predicted to set a new benchmark for seawater desalination water prices on a global scale.
