The Huntington Beach Desalination Plant is a 50-million gallon per day facility currently in late-stage development. The desalination plant will be located adjacent to the AES Huntington Beach Power Station and is scheduled to be operational by 2023.

The Huntington Beach Desalination Plant is a cost-effective, environmentally sensitive solution to provide a safe and reliable water supply to Orange County residents and has the potential to bring significant economic benefits for the city of Huntington Beach and the region including:
- - Millions of dollars in economic stimulus over the life of the facility.
- - Creation of over 2,000 jobs during construction and 18 full-time jobs and 322 indirect jobs once the facility is in operation.
- - Largest local, drought-proof water supply in Orange County.
