Cover Story: The constant growth of electricity demand, the depleting resources of fossil fuels, and the advancing globalisation and climate change problem make renewable energy the fastest developing branch of energy supply. With wind turbines increasing in size, installed at greater distances from the mainland, and greater depths, submarine cables are facing new challenges. Depending on the application, various types and specific designs of the submarine cables are required. The designs need to predict all environmental aspects, production capabilities and installation conditions. The radial water barrier, which is a crucial part of the cable design, is very relevant, especially in new dynamic cables. Lead, aluminium, and copper, which are commonly used nowadays, are becoming obsolete and not applicable to new, state-of-the-art cable designs. View this paper.
