Adani - Thermography & Topographical Survey

Company

Case Studies

Adani Spinel Energy

Adani Group, established in 1988, began as a commodity trading company and has since grown into diverse sectors, including energy, logistics, and infrastructure. Known for building India’s largest private port in Mundra, Adani has consistently driven innovation and growth across industries.

The Challenge

Solar power plants face inspection challenges due to environmental factors and expansive layouts. Adani sought a faster, safer, and more precise method to:

Detect temperature anomalies using thermographic surveys.

Identify inefficiencies in solar panels to maximize energy production.

Conduct large-scale surveys without compromising safety or accuracy.

The Drone Solution

Area Covered: 1,000 acres across 7 plants in Mysore and 1 in Mahoba, UP.

Tools Used: Mavic 2 Enterprise drones, Pix4D mapping software, AutoCAD.

Efficiency: Completed the project in just 45 hours using three drone pilots.

Outcome: Pinpointed defects like flawed cells, damaged diodes, and PID issues to enhance energy output.

Outcomes

Conducted comprehensive thermographic and topographical surveys with unparalleled precision.

Enabled rapid, non-invasive inspections, reducing costs and minimizing manual effort.

Identified and resolved critical issues, enhancing solar plant performance.

Feedback

“

This project demonstrated the game-changing potential of drone technology in solar plant operations. The insights provided were invaluable, allowing us to optimize energy production and reduce inefficiencies.
