Nearthlab Signs MoU with Axess Group to Expand Drone Inspection Services
Nearthlab, a leading provider of autonomous drone solutions, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Axess Group.
Axess Group, which began as an inspection company for the Norwegian oil and gas industry, expanded into the renewable energy sector in 2018 and has since completed over 150 projects for clients in this sector worldwide. The organization now serves the global wind market through its 28 offices in 22 countries and is on track to achieve its goal of generating 25% of its annual revenue from renewables within the next five years.
Under the MoU, Axess Group will deploy Nearthlab’s drones to conduct inspections across both onshore and offshore sites in Scandinavia and Africa, regions where Nearthlab has yet to expand. The inspection data will be managed through Zoomable, Nearthlab’s cloud-based analytics platform.
“Efficient inspections are crucial for maintaining wind turbines that endure significant fatigue loads,” said Jay Choi, CEO and co-founder of Nearthlab. “Through this partnership, our drones will be able to help numerous wind farms operate at their peak efficiency.”
This partnership not only broadens Nearthlab’s market reach into Scandinavia and Africa but also showcases its technology to a wider audience.
“Nearthlab and Axess Group share a common vision of contributing towards a sustainable future.” said Håvard Sletvold, Group Director - AIM at Axess Group. “We are confident that our collaboration will support many clean energy producers in progressing towards a sustainable future.”
