Percepto has been contracted by the Electric Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) to deliver automated inspection drones to monitor a 45MW hydro-floating solar hybrid farm located on the Sirindhorn dam. The solar farm is one of the largest facilities in the world and consists of seven sections floating on buoys.
Percepto has partnered with Top Engineering Corporation to deliver the project. Percepto’s AIM software and drone-in-a-box solution will autonomously perform routine inspections of the solar panels and other equipment. The drones will provide regular operations and maintenance reports, map the location of the panels and perform inspections of substations, transformers, floating fences and solar floaters.
The drones will allow for remote inspections, up to 600 km away from the solar facility.
