1 Dec 2020Cable Installation Start
In early December 2020, HEP’s Split-based Elektrodalmacija team laid a new 3.5 km, 20 kV submarine power cable at depths of around 70 metres between the islands of Iž and Ugljan, replacing a 57‑year‑old cable to improve their electricity supply. The installation utilised a patented subsea jointing technique performed by a four-person team working under high-pressure conditions at 70–80 metres depth.
