Luanda, Angola – (African Boulevard News) – The Angolan government is set to address the long-standing water shortage problem in Luanda with the approval of the PROAGUA project. Led by global water and waste management giants Suez and Mitrelli, through its subsidiary Owini, the project is a year behind schedule but promises to bring relief to the capital city.
For years, Luanda has been grappling with a severe water shortage, with residents enduring long periods without access to clean and safe water.

However, the PROAGUA project aims to change this by improving water infrastructure and increasing supply capabilities.
With the green light from the Angolan government, Suez and Mitrelli can now move forward with their plans to implement innovative solutions to tackle Luanda’s water crisis. The project will involve the rehabilitation of existing water treatment plants, the construction of new ones, and the implementation of advanced technologies to improve water distribution efficiency.
“We are delighted to partner with Mitrelli and utilize our expertise in water management to address the water scarcity issue in Luanda,” said a spokesperson from Suez. “This project will not only provide much-needed clean water to the residents but also contribute to sustainable development in the region.”
Owini, the Mitrelli subsidiary leading the project, brings its extensive experience in infrastructure development and management to the table. The company has successfully implemented numerous projects across Africa, including in water and sanitation, energy, and transportation sectors.
“Our goal is to ensure that every resident in Luanda has access to clean and safe water,” stated a representative from Owini. “Through the PROAGUA project, we will utilize state-of-the-art technologies and sustainable practices to overcome the water shortage challenges in the city.”
The PROAGUA project is expected to have a significant impact on the lives of the residents in Luanda. It will not only increase water availability but also improve the quality of life and create opportunities for economic growth.
