Making artificial reefs from natural seawater
Label Date

From
United Kingdom
Maturity stage
TRL 7 - Prototype testing in the real world
CCell builds artificial reefs from recycled rebar, mimicking the shapes and properties of naturally occurring reefs. The reefs are powered with renewable electricity, producing a chemical reaction within the seawater that causes limestone rock to form around the reef structure. This rock provides a foundation for coral restoration and marine wildlife while strengthening the defensive properties of the reefs. CCell’s advanced modelling capabilities, combined with electronics and cutting-edge wave-energy capture technology, allows this solution to be customised for a given area. Local expertise, coral out-planting and education initiatives are able to support and boost this solution.
The Environmental Benefits
- •0.05mm/day limestone rock accumulation on the reef structure due to electrolysis
- •10kW of renewable energy produces an effective 200m reef in 11 months
- •96% reduction in CO2 emissions
- •52% less energy consumption overall
The Financial Benefits
- •10% cheaper than mainstream alternative
- •less than 2 years payback time
