767,750 solar panels and 1 large substation, spanning across 2,250 acres Inspected
TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / October 28, 2024 / Volatus Aerospace Inc. (TSXV:FLTV)(OTCQX:TAKOF)(Frankfurt:A3DP5Y/ABBA.F) is pleased to announce the successful completion of a large drone solar farm inspection project. The inspection spanned 2,250 acres, covering over 400MW of solar power capacity and 762,750 solar panels across 16 solar fields and 1 large substation. This milestone highlights Volatus' expertise in providing innovative aerial solutions for critical infrastructure sectors, including renewable energy, oil and gas, and energy utilities.
Volatus utilized RGB and infrared (IR) drones in combination with handheld thermal cameras to collect comprehensive data, ensuring the solar farm's operational readiness. This post-commissioning inspection represents the final phase before the solar fields are handed over to their owners. Volatus applied AI-powered software to process and analyze the data, enabling precise identification of potential anomalies and defects. By georeferencing issues directly to specific panels or equipment,Volatus enabled efficient inspections and interventions, which will help support long-term operational health.
"Through this process we've learned a lot that will help us create more automated and efficient solutions for this growing sector," Rob Walker, Chief Commercial Officer of Volatus Aerospace, stated. "This project demonstrates how scalable drone technology can economically assist large-scale infrastructure inspections. By delivering comprehensive and efficient solutions, we help our clients make informed and improved operational decisions more efficiently. This supports their long-term performance, while reducing maintenance costs and minimizing downtime or inefficiencies."
Volatus sees this as a high-opportunity market, with more than 5,000 solar farms across the United States according to CBS News. The solar energy industry is expected to reach nearly
