The Lanzarote V desalination plant resumed its operations early Monday morning, following a significant breakdown in recent days. The facility, considered crucial for the island's water supply, has recovered its estimated production capacity of approximately 18,000 cubic meters of potable water per day.

The repair was complex, requiring continuous technical intervention by the Production, Distribution, and specialized personnel teams. The primary objective was to restore the operability of one of the main plants supplying various municipalities on Lanzarote as quickly as possible.

Despite the desalination plant's restart, Canal Gestión Lanzarote has warned that additional supply incidents may still occur. The island's hydraulic system needs to progressively regain operational stability after several days of disruptions in the production and distribution of drinking water.

Pending tasks include normalizing the regulation levels of storage tanks and rebalancing water distribution across Lanzarote's different supply zones. Consequently, the full restoration of service will be gradual, and occasional cuts may persist until the system returns to its usual operating levels.

Adding to this situation is the standstill of the portable desalination unit managed by the Consorcio del Agua de Lanzarote, which remains out of service following an explosion on May 17th. The breakdown of this temporary infrastructure has increased pressure on the island's water production system.

Canal Gestión Lanzarote has expressed gratitude for the collaboration and understanding shown by subscribers during the days of interruptions and restrictions.
