The project is a component of the government of Ghana's large infrastructure development initiative, which aims to improve living conditions for the country's rapidly expanding population while boosting economic growth and job opportunities.

The project's objective includes renovating the current Keta Water Treatment Plant in Agordome so that it can once again produce at its maximum rate of 7,200 cubic meters per day. It also entails building a new water treatment plant with a daily capacity of 35,000 cubic meters in the city.

When both plants are finished, they will work in tandem with a transmission pipeline, a booster station, and reservoirs to provide water for over 400,000 people in the Tongu, Keta, and Anloga districts through the year 2030.
