Five pilot locations will be set up in the project in the Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom in order to install and test alternative methods of fresh water supply.

The Water Technology Research Group is working on an Interreg 2 Seas Project called FRESH4Cs; an acronym for alternative fresh water resources for saline coastal areas. This project started in February 2019 and will run for four years until September 2022. The project was granted funding by the Interreg 2 Seas Programme, the aim of which is to support and develop a 2 Seas area where the natural resources are protected; the FRESH4Cs project in this case focuses on the resource of fresh water.
Traditional water resources are under pressure in the 2 Seas area, with this problem being even more prominent in lowland coastal areas due to salinization of surface waters. These same coastal areas drain vast amounts of water towards the sea at moments of water surplus, for example in the winter but can also experience a shortage in fresh water supply or drought in summer.
