By Artelia
From France
Maturity stage TRL 9 / CRI 5-6 - Market competition driving widespread deployment &/"Bankable" grade asset class

The ACCROPODE(tm) technology has been the benchmark single-layer armour unit since 1981 and has evolved into several subsequent concepts such as ACRROPODE II and ECOPODE. It has been deployed more than 200 times in 48 countries, in settings of all types. It is simple, robust, reliable and easy to fabricate using basic techniques. It can be adapted seamlessly to all types of structure. As is the case with all CLI armour units, it has a high stability coefficient derived from its shape as well as from the associated placing techniques. It can be used on structures of all types from coastal defences in shallow water to large breakwaters designed to protect ports or nuclear power plants. Last but not least, this is a technology with minimal maintenance costs since these structures are normally intended to withstand the design wave without sustaining damage. CLI is a subsidiary of Artelia, a french and international engineering group especialised about climate actions and projects
