Powerline Inspections
Inspect critical energy infrastructure efficiently and at scale using our AI software.
Regular inspection of both transmission and distribution networks is critical in keeping the energy grid stable. Energy utilities end up spending as much as 20% of their annual costs on inspection and maintenance of an ageing grid, with an average of 8-15% of energy lost in transmissions. Most utilities rely on manual or semi-automated inspection techniques, meaning there is a higher cost per project, long inspection cycles and late detection of critical issues. With poorly maintained grid infrastructures costing even more in maintenance and energy loss, it can be a vicious cycle. Our product provides an automated way to inspect energy networks more efficiently using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Our AI system ensures high data quality, automated analysis, and future risk prediction to keep your grids running smoothly.

Automated vegetation inspections and trim cycle optimisation using AI.
Vegetation management continues to be an expensive, but critical part of network maintenance for utilities. Overgrown trees and vegetation pose a threat to the reliability and safety of electrical systems, which is only aggravated with growing climate risks. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that power outages caused by vegetation encroachment cost the U.S. economy between $20-30 billion annually in lost productivity and damages. Needless to say, vegetation management remains top of mind for electric utilities globally. Traditional methods of vegetation management, such as manual inspections, are not only labour-intensive and costly but also often inefficient. Our AI vegetation management solution helps you do more efficient remote inspections using satellites and drones.

Wind Energy
Reduce the costs of turbine inspections and downtime with our AI powered applications.
Wind turbine inspections are hugely time consuming and complex, with turbines often located in remote places that are difficult to access. Undetected damages can reduce turbine operating performance, over time leading to expensive blade failures.
Our unique and market-leading Lambda technology has gone through significant research and testing, creating a solution that cuts the time and costs of turbine inspections and gives you in-depth and accurate data and insights.
Solar Energy
Improve the speed and precision of your solar panel inspections with the power of data fusion and AI.
Renewable energy is the key to the future, and, like wind, solar energy is another important component in the transition to net zero. Commercial solar installations cover hundreds of acres of land, meaning that identifying damages can be a costly and time consuming process. At the same time, any potential damages and internal circuit-based issues need to be corrected in a timely manner to ensure optimal performance and prevent widespread damage to the installation. Lambda uses AI technology to detect and measure damages within solar installations with ease, cutting down on inspection times and costs, while also giving more in-depth and accurate results.
