This technology allows to detect structural incidents in the blades of the wind turbines and serves as a guide for its correct maintenance, saving considerable costs and increasing safety.
Iberdrola was one of the first energy companies to realize the enormous opportunities offered by drones.
The rapid development experienced by these remotely piloted aerial systems has led to its applications multiplying, and the company has not hesitated to promote its use in different areas. Thus, since 2013 it promotes the development of this type of technology through its investment in the external Arbórea Intellbird company for the creation of solutions dedicated to the review and maintenance of wind turbines.
