Abstract
Purpose: to discuss undersea power networks and EMF emissions from undersea AC and DC cables and present the current state of knowledge regarding the effects of emitted EMFs from marine renewable energy cables on marine organisms. Field data and case studies from around the world helped establish an understanding of the interaction between EMF and a variety of species, as well as identified remaining questions requiring further research and measurement campaigns.
