Seychelles and Maldives rely on seawater desalination to secure drinking water due to insufficient natural freshwater resources. The Seychelles Public Utilities Corporation operates four facilities that supply drinking water to over 80,000 residents and 200,000 visitors.

In the Maldives, the Malé Water & Sewerage Company provides clean water to approximately 100,000 inhabitants and many tourists in Malé. Both countries face increasing demand and the need for resilient, sustainable water treatment infrastructure.
