Abstract

In the editorial in the September/October 2019 issue of the Magazine, Harry Orton wrote inspiringly on some aspects of the history of power cables. Moving onwards to today's status, he indicated the growing importance and use of submarine cables particularly related to offshore wind applications. In his writing he made it also abundantly clear that power cables potentially can be a solution to reduce the risk of power outages in case of natural disasters like wildfires, windstorms, cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, ice storms, floods and landslides. These are examples of applications of power cables as a reaction to the global needs.
