Water pipeline Albania-Pulia

The Albanian government has given the green light for the construction of a water pipeline that will connect Gjirokastra with Apulia. It was the President of the region, Michele Emiliano, who gave the news in a press conference where he spoke about investments in the water supply system, reports Corriere della Sera .

"The Albanian government has authorized us to start planning the water pipeline that will connect Albania with Italy. Albania throws a significant amount of water into the sea and obviously has an interest in being paid for the water. We are interested in taking it because for us it means giving a new model to agriculture, developing tourism and giving a future to all the citizens of Puglia".

Construction and costs

It will take 4 years of work and one billion euros to build the necessary infrastructure. The water supply is expected to be financed with the resources of the EIB, the EBRD, the Italian state and the region of the Apulian water supply corporation.

According to Corriere.it, the goal is to transport 150 million cubic meters of water to Puglia every year, and for the region it will be a strategic infrastructure, given the drought that has characterized it in recent years.

According to the Italian side, Albania would have an economic benefit, since about 8,000 new direct and indirect jobs would be opened.

The proposal of Confindustria

The proposal for the aqueduct was launched in 2022 by the president of the Confindustria of Puglia and Bari-Bat, Sergio Fontana.

"Here in Puglia we have the skills to be a national reference point for water policy. We have the Apulian Waterworks, the largest in Europe, the first contracting station in Apulia. United by the Adriatic Sea, we face Albania, a country very rich in water. We have extremely close relations with Albania. We have a huge opportunity to address the water crisis proactively. We can give life to a big and ambitious project by building an impressive water infrastructure in the Adriatic Sea between Puglia and Albania", said Fontana, during the annual meeting of the Bari-Bat Confindustria.
