They should be installed on the seabed, process that is not usually easy. Therefore, their installation process should be clearly defined. The aim of this paper is to propose several methods for installing a group of green artificial reefs designed in the PROARR research project. Two of these methodologies are conventional: a bulkcarrier and a special service workboat. The other technique is innovative: an autonomous vehicle. All of them offer different results in terms of maneuverability, positioning, precision and cost. This study will compare these four methods of installing green artificial reefs to improve the knowledge about this type of sustainable way of exploiting the marine resources.engThe European Association for the Development of Renewable Energies, Environment and Power Quality is agree that scientific literature should be publicly available, free of charge on the internet so that those who are interested can read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, refer to and, in any other conceivable legal way, use full texts without encountering any financial, legal or technical barriers other than those associated with Internet access (…) and then all the papers published by Renewable Energy and Power Quality Journal (RE&PQJ) (…) are scientific and technical documents of open access and then they will be of free online access plus some additional usage rights in accordance with the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and HumanitiesGreen artificial reefFodTransportInstallationconference outputopen access
