Answer: The cost-effectiveness of underground cable installation has been a major focus of innovation in our industry. Recent advancements, which we support with our specialized equipment, include:

• Trenchless Technology: Methods like auger boring and fast micro-tunneling minimize the need for large, open trenches, significantly reducing civil works costs and environmental disruption.

• Plowing-in Cables: This technique allows for the rapid installation of cables in narrow, shallow trenches, which can reduce civil works costs by up to one-third.

• Co-undergrounding: The practice of installing multiple utility lines (e.g., electricity and broadband) in the same trench can provide substantial cost savings and increase network resilience.

These innovations make underground cable projects a more attractive and viable alternative to traditional overhead lines in an increasing number of scenarios.
