Project: Irrigation Network and Regulating Reservoir in the Tigaiga Area (Los Realejos)

Year: 2011

Promoter: CABILDO DE TENERIFE, GOBIERNO DE CANARIAS

Description: This project aims to improve and irrigate approximately 62 hectares of agricultural land at the foothills of the Tigaiga Massif in the municipality of Los Realejos, Tenerife. The project includes the construction of a regulating reservoir with a capacity of 3,714 m³ at the head of the network and four distribution branches.
It can be divided into three distinct phases:

  • Phase 1: Construction of the supply pipeline to the regulating reservoir from the Llanos de Mesa basin, located approximately 3 km away.
  • Phase 2: Construction of the regulating reservoir.
  • Phase 3: Construction of distribution branches from the regulating reservoir to the irrigable area.

Particular attention has been paid to the design of the reservoir to enhance its landscape integration, as well as the necessary conduits for the project.
