The Government of the Canary Islands has declared the DESALIFE project a strategic initiative for the region, recognizing it as a “highly innovative and sustainable project, with strong strategic relevance and proven technical feasibility.”
According to Ocean Oasis, this recognition marks a milestone for the project, as it transitions from technology validation to industrial deployment. It will also lead to the launch of Spain’s first offshore desalination plant powered entirely by wave energy, enabling zero-emission, off-grid freshwater production at a commercial scale.
