Case Study: a large electric utility achieves 70% faster remediation with Optelos AI inspection software

Large Electric Utility - Customer Case Study

A large electric utility in South America, with over 1,500 km of transmission lines, faced the challenge of inspecting its widespread and dangerous infrastructure. The utility partnered with Optelos to implement a computer vision AI inspection solution to automate fault detection and move from manual to drone-based inspections.

Using the Optelos platform, the utility securely managed its inspection data to train an AI engine for automated defect detection. The solution was integrated with their ticketing system to automatically create work orders. This resulted in the evaluation of over 675k images and led to a 70% reduction in remediation time and a 3x increase in inspection capacity for the utility.
