In the framework of the peace treaty between Israel Jordan the integrated development Master Plan for the Jordan Rift Valley, the Red Sea – Dead Sea was considered to be one of the most important potential elements for implementing this Master Plan. The principal development objective of the RSDSC was to provide desalinated drinking water for the people of the area. In addition, as a result of the 1973 energy crisis and the search for alternative energy sources the idea evolved to study this project also for the generation of electricity with the goal to produce 800 MW during peak hours. Currently, the main task of the project is a partial solution for the water deficit existing and predicted for the region because as a result of the regional irrigation projects most of the running water in the DS drainage basin is used and the water balance of the lake is negative.
