In the ever-evolving landscape of solar panel surveys and installations Apex Renewable Energy Surveys strive to improve all the time. The biggest change for all installers we have implemented recently is the use of drones for all our solar surveys. This allows quicker and easier surveys while also providing more accurate information on all our surveys.
Why We Started to do Our Solar Surveys With Drones?
Precision and Accuracy
One of the primary reasons we decided to adopt the use of drones in our survey is for the accuracy they provide. We know can give all our installers and customer access to full video and aerial images of all our surveys. All our drones are equipped with high resolutions camera's and have specific software built within in them to allow for specific fly overs for all your needs. We can then use these images to create 3D designs of the property in question giving you the most accurate representation of the designed solar panel system.
Time and Cost Efficiency
Another advantage of using drones on our surveys is the time it can save performing surveys as surveying roofs from the ground accurately can be time consuming. When you scale this up into a commercial size job it can save hours of work, a drone can easily survey a few acres of land in no time compared to doing this manually on foot. The ability to do surveys in a more timely manner will allow Apex Renewable Energy Surveys to perform more surveys which makes it more cost effective allowing us to keep our surveys at competitive prices.
Enhanced Safety
Health and safety is a massive part of any companies process and the use of drones allows to keep our surveyors safer while on site without the need for climbing up ladders and onto buildings. It also allows us to avoid sending surveyors over potentially dangerous terrains and keeps our surveyors off building sites and reducing any extra risk that may be involved when sending surveyors to certain locations.
Customer Satisfaction
Not only do the drone shots allow Apex Renewable Energy Surveys more accurate information but it also gives the customer drone footage of the property in question. Whether your an installer suing Apex for surveys and design or a consumer this can be a big advantage as you are able to offer your customer drone footage of their property. The average cost of drone photography and footage in the UK is around £300 to £400 so this is a massive factor when using Apex as its just part of our service and we do not charge extra for this.
Scalability and Flexibility
One of the key advantages for Apex Renewable Energy Surveys is the scalability of our surveys with the use of drones. Whether the project is a small domestic dwelling or is a much larger commercial building drones can easily adapt to the environment and allow is never before seen speed and accuracy.
Conclusion of Solar Surveys With Drones
The integration of drone technology in the solar panel surveying environment will have massive implications on the future of further solar panel installation. As the demand for solar energy grows the use of drones will be more important that ever and by staying at the forefront of the technology Apex Renewable Energy Surveys will not be left behind and will strive to always perform the most professional and accurate surveys in the solar industry.
