Red Eléctrica and ECOncrete completed a post-installation environmental inspection of the 132 kV subsea electricity cable between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, using professional divers to visually assess the condition of the cable protection and surrounding seabed. The case study found that ECOncrete’s bio‑enhancing concrete protection along the cable trench had rapidly integrated into the marine environment, with diverse species of fish, algae, sponges, crustaceans, molluscs and sea urchins colonising the structures less than a year after installation, demonstrating positive biodiversity impacts alongside the operational power link.
