The optimal functional storage capacity is expected to meet a fifth of the daily needs. Currently, with the
commissioning of the Niangon II (Yopougon), Bonoua and Anyama water towers, Abidjan has a storage
capacity of more than 162,000 m3. With a need of 500 000 m3/d, this storage level is inadequate.
The table below shows efforts made by the State in order to reduce this deficit.
