We are incorporating Artificial Intelligence into overhead line inspection

Innovation

We continue to make progress in our drive for digitalisation and that’s why we have signed an agreement with eSmart Systems to digitalise and automate our overhead power line inspection process.

Thanks to the eSmart Systems platform Grid Vision, we will be able to develop safer and more precise inspections, besides making them more sustainable with a smaller environmental footprint, by avoiding unnecessary journeys to installations in the countryside and thereby reducing helicopter flights and car journeys.

It represents another step towards a new way of operating and maintaining our electricity distribution network. We are committed to digitalising our assets and procedures, so we are innovating and constantly developing new initiatives.

At UFD, we are building a more sustainable future for everybody!
