Amid growing concern over water shortages in Metro Cebu, the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) has reaffirmed a milestone partnership with Vivant Hydrocore Holdings Inc. (with trade name Vivant Water) through the signing of a 25-year joint venture agreement to supply water in Metro Cebu.<\/p>\n

Vivant Water\u2019s desalination plant, located in Cordova, Cebu, which can produce up to 20 million liters of clean, potable water per day, will supply the water to MCWD, which in turn distributes it to its customers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The entire Cebu province continues to experience growing demand on its water supply, driven by population growth and urban development. Furthermore, climate-related factors have put pressure on water supply. In early 2024, Cebu City declared a water crisis due to the El Ni\u00f1o phenomenon, which led to a significant water deficit and affected water distribution in areas like Talisay and the southern district of Cebu City. During that time, MCWD reported a water deficit of 40,000 cubic meters per day, which later increased to 50,000 cubic meters.<\/p>\n

To help address this crisis, MCWD and Vivant Water have formalized their long-term partnership
\n– a testament to MCWD\u2019s public service mandate and Vivant Water\u2019s technical expertise in delivering sustainable water solutions for Metro Cebu.<\/p>\n

\u201cVivant is committed to investing in essential infrastructure that enables communities to thrive,\u201d said Arlo Sarmiento, Vivant Corporation CEO. \u201cThis landmark partnership with MCWD is a testament to our long-term vision of providing sustainable and impactful projects that propel economic growth and improve everyday living in the communities that we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vivant Water, through its subsidiary Isla Mactan Cordova Corporation (IMCC), is the first company in the country to develop a utility scale seawater desalination plant. Water desalination has emerged as a globally recognized solution for water-scarce regions. Its adoption in Metro Cebu reduces dependence on traditional freshwater sources and helps the region adapt to the impacts of climate change and population growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cWater security is essential to sustainable development, and this agreement showcases our dedication to innovative solutions. Desalination provides a viable and scalable alternative to meet Cebu\u2019s growing demand.\u201d ended Mr. Sarmiento.
\nThe collaboration between MCWD and Vivant Water is a decisive move toward water security for Metro Cebu, empowering communities with a reliable and resilient water source for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
