As the pulse technique is a relatively new technique, there are many questions about possible adverse effects such as:
- Effect of electricity on species
- Mechanical effects
- Effect of electricity on the ecosystem
- Catch efficiency and selectivity
- Share of marketable fish or other animals in the catch.
- Share of discards in the catch.
- Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
