Solar Drone Thermal Imaging Survey
Thermal Inspections
Accelerate project commissioning and improve asset performance with rapid, accurate thermal scans.
About
Thermal scans are a proven method to quickly identify diminished or offline solar assets. These scans are particularly valuable during the commissioning process, reducing IV curve tracing requirements by 90% or more.
Our comprehensive thermal commissioning reports will give you peace of mind that you aren't buying defective assets from day one, saving you a ton of hassle and hidden costs down the road.
Details
We run a financial pro-forma model on every power plant where we conduct thermal analyses. We'll know which type of errors are relevant to your return targets...and frankly, which ones can wait. We know that every truck roll costs you and your business money, and repair costs have to be balanced against potential recovered revenue.
Once plants are operational, the value of thermal scans is subject to more scrutiny. How much are offline or damaged assets really costing you? For a solar panel that only generates $20 a year in revenue, why send a crew out to replace it? We have a better way.
When you do need to roll a truck to address issues on site, you want to make sure the crews work fast and efficiently. That's true for both power plant commissioning as well as ongoing O&M.
In the world of solar, O&M crews often find themselves working in difficult, remote locations that can span hundreds and sometimes thousands of acres. Simply locating non-working assets on sites this large can be a problem. That's why every thermal scan that Precision XYZ conducts comes with our unique Air-2-Ground software service.
One of the best features of Air-2-Ground is that 99% of your teams already have the tool they need to use it. Crews simply use their smartphones to directly and efficiently lead them to the area in question. There's no need to download a new application - just open your web browser and off you go.

Precision XYZ Reviews
5 Star Reviews
Topographic Mapping
"Precision XYZ was able to deliver accurate topographic maps faster and more affordably than we have typically received on past projects. The engagement process was easy and the turnaround time was incredibly quick."
- Stephen Smith

Topographic Mapping
"Project Gemini will be North America's largest solar power plant at just under 700MW of capacity. This project required both accuracy and speed, something that Precision XYZ executed perfectly. We would definitely recommend them to other developers."
- Ricardo Graf

Progress Monitoring
"Precision XYZ has been very responsive. Their Site Progress Monitoring solution has been a big boon to getting a better handle on our projects. The visuals alone are very helpful, but with their metric driven system tied to daily financials it’s helped us directly manage our projects."
