A Comparative Study - 
The Impact of Industrial Scale Power Grid Inspections with AI

Most utilities are capturing more inspection data than ever. Most of it goes unanalyzed.

Drone programs scale fast. Analysis capacity doesn't. The result: growing backlogs, decisions made on incomplete condition data, and defects that don't get found until they become failures.

On June 2nd, we're hosting a webinar based on a paper being presented at CIRED Brussels — built around real data from a 15,000 km UAV inspection of Sweden's medium and low voltage distribution grid.

Dimitra Tsakmakopoulou, Data Scientist and co-author of the paper, will walk through the findings:

— AI-assisted inspection reduced analysis time by 24x and cost by 21x compared to manual digital review

— One Swedish region that adopted AI inspection in 2020 saw SAIFI drop from 2.4 to ~1.0 interruptions per customer over the following years

— What it actually takes to move from pilot to network-scale deployment — including where the constraints are

This isn't a product demo. It's a technical session for people who work with inspection data and need analysis capacity to match capture capacity.

If you're responsible for inspection programs, asset condition, or grid maintenance — this is built for you.
