HEP-ODS plans to start in autumn 2024 the replacement and installation of new 20 kV submarine cable sections in the waters around Rab Island, including the Fruga–Goli Otok–Uvala Biluća connections and the Andreškići–Goli Otok link, as part of a wider programme to renew multiple submarine cable routes on the Rab–Lopar–Biluća corridor and nearby islands during 2024–2025.

The Croatian Ministry of Spatial Planning, Construction and State Assets issued a Location Permit (Lokacijska dozvola) on 23 March 2023 for the TS 110/20 kV Rab–Lopar–Biluća submarine power cable section KK Goli–KK Biluća, which serves the Rab Island Cable connection. This permit provides planning consent for the construction and use of the replacement submarine cable along the specified route, and is subsequently referenced as the governing planning document in the Croatian Government’s decision granting special use rights over the maritime domain for the project.
