Abstract (en)
A system enhances corrosion protection of a protected surface (30) of a marine structure (110) in contact with a liquid containing biofouling organisms. The protected surface is electrically conductive and is protected against corrosion by impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP). The system has a light emitting arrangement (100) comprising a light source (20) for emitting anti-fouling light (22). The light emitting arrangement is arranged to emit the anti-fouling light from the light source towards a zone of the protected surface (30). Effectively biofouling is prevented and the operation of the ICCP is enhanced when the marine structure is partly immersed in the fouling liquid.
