Wind & Solar - INDUSTRY - Chengdu Timestars Co., Ltd.

TIM UAV Wind and Solar Power Station Solution

Designed and developed according to industry needs, suitable for multi-industry and multi-scenario applications.

Large-scale wind farms and photovoltaic power stations are often located in sparsely populated areas. Traditional manual inspection is inefficient and poses high safety risks, and relying on manual operations makes it difficult to achieve data-driven management. UAV inspection precisely addresses the core pain points of wind and solar power stations: wide distribution, tall equipment, low efficiency of manual inspection, and high risks.

Industry pain points

Based on industry operational requirements and targeting traditional operational pain points, we create scientific and efficient industry application solutions.

High safety risks
Wind turbine equipment is tall, requiring manual inspection to involve climbing or high-altitude lifting, and is greatly affected by weather conditions.
Low inspection efficiency
Large-scale station manual inspection is time-consuming, and thermal imager sampling is prone to omissions.
Highly subjective
Highly subjective
Dispersed and unstructured data
Lack of unified digital archives, which is detrimental to asset management and performance evaluation.
