Thanks for sharing, Harjeet. How quickly can an organization go from having no exposure to drones for inspections to using these as a part of their regular maintenance? How steep is that learning curve?

Thanks, Matt. The transition to using drones is relatively easy. Typically, the asset manager or O&M provider will be out-sourcing the drone inspection to a third-party expert, so there is no need for internal training, equipment procurement, data analysis software, etc. They will need to use a thorough RFP and vetting process to select a quality vendor for their drone inspection, and prepare their workflow to accept high-quality drone data to inform their maintenance decisions.

I've decided to wait a few years and learn from other customer's experiences before considering making a change to a smart meter, once the change...

Great example of the utility sector being able to learn from faster to mature developments in other industries!

Thanks David,

But what’s much more probable (although even then, not very probable) is that a couple bright teenagers in India would be able to cause a grid outage
