Flight · Analysis · Expert report

  • Flight

    Radiometric thermography and high-resolution optics with an enterprise fleet — no shutdown, no rope access.

  • Analysis

    Findings with severity S1–S4, blade/module reference and georeferenced evidence — clear for O&M and insurers.

  • Expert report

    Independent expert assessment under DIN EN ISO/IEC 17024 — PDF/DOCX, signable, archive-ready.

Starting point

Why classic inspection gets expensive and risky

  • Height & risk

    Rope access means personal risk and tight weather windows.

  • Shutdown

    Some methods need power-down or closure — lost production.

  • Weak evidence chain

    Photos without a standards link are hard for insurers and banks to trust.

  • Offshore / EEZ

    Without LUC/SORA/SMS and an expert model, often not insurable.

Predictable cost instead of scaffolding and downtime

You do not need more data — you need a report that holds up.

Predictable cost by asset count and location (on-/offshore) — flight, analysis and expert report in one service (OPEX instead of CAPEX for scaffolding and downtime).

Benefits

Your advantages at a glance

  • Insurer-ready reports

    ISO 17024 expert model instead of a photo dump.

  • No people at height

    Inspection from a safe distance.

  • Operations continue

    Flight without plant shutdown where operationally allowed.

  • Onshore + offshore + EEZ

    One operator stack including LUC.

  • Severity S1–S4

    Clear prioritisation for repair and O&M.

  • Repeatable

    Comparable time series across inspection cycles.

  • O&M follow-up

    Findings ≥ S3 → repair / maintenance conversation.

  • GDPR / hosted in DE

    Isolated data holding in Germany.

    Rotor blade, nacelle area, construction state, post-repair.

  • Wind offshore / EEZ

    Insurable documentation where competitors often fail.

  • PV parks

    Thermography with IEC/DIN references.

  • HV lines / masts

    Lines and masts without shutdown.

  • Industry & critical infra

    Visual and thermal condition checks.

  • Insurers / banks

    Independent condition assessment mandates.
