Sterlite Grid partners with Sharper Shape for UAV technology

Sterlite Grid will deliver unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) technologies for the power transmission industry in partnership with Finland’s UAV solutions provider, Sharper Shape. UAVs offer timely information from remote places that are inaccessible through manual methods, thereby making operations and maintenance more efficient, and reducing technical losses. UAVs can play a critical role in preventing outages by offering predictive analytics, thus ensuring uninterrupted power supply. While Sterlite will set up operations in India involving all customer-facing activities, Sharper Shape will provide software solutions, technical know-how and capabilities required to fulfill the scope of work.
