Drones and AI Revolutionize Solar Planning with Fast, Safe, and Precise PV System Measurements

Adrian, from Airteam Aerial Intelligence, presented a cutting-edge approach to faster PV system planning leveraging drones and AI. His team aims to empower solar installation companies by providing safer and more efficient methods for planning photovoltaic (PV) plants. Traditional measurement techniques are often error-prone, inefficient, and unsafe; replacing them with drone technology offers a solution that is both precise and cost-effective. Aerial Intelligence's service employs consumer-grade drones to capture high-quality roof data in minutes. This data is processed on their cloud platform into various formats including 3D models, CAD files (DWG, DXF), and DIN-certified reports detailing roof dimensions and object placements—critical inputs for accurate PV installations. Their services also include full project support where they dispatch pilots globally to collect required data using advanced yet accessible drone technology like the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise or even common models such as the DJI Mini. The company has completed over 30,000 successful projects across Europe with more than 1,500 clients. Their robust system allows users to interactively plan solar installations via an online tool ensuring precision without rework— making it suitable for businesses of all sizes.

Talk of session: How 'Bout Some More? The Latest News on Large-Scale PV Plants (partly in German or English)

Large installations are developing rapidly, and innovative applications in this area are on the rise: Hybrid power plants combine PV with wind or batteries or both, while floating PV uses water surfaces as power plant sites. This session will present projects such as Europe's largest floating PV installation and Sukari, the world's largest off-grid hybrid power plant. The latest trends in project development, EPC, O&M and Asset Management will also be discussed.
