The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is improving water supply and modernising wastewater treatment facilities in Jordan with a sovereign loan of EUR 30 million, co-financed by a EUR 30 million grant from the European Union. Under the EBRD’s Municipal Resilience Refugee Response Framework, these funds will enable the Jordanian Ministry of Water and Irrigation to build a modern wastewater treatment plant. This plant will increase the network’s capacity to serve households and will be able to reach up to 1 million people, including Syrian refugees living in Amman and Zarqa, who are not connected to the mains network.The new wastewater treatment plant in Al Ghabawi will have a capacity of 24,750 m3 per day and will replace an existing facility in Ain Ghazal. The plant will also contribute to mitigating environmental risks.
