For aerially inspecting wind turbines and other structures, drone pilots come into action. During our mission in Texas, drone pilot Andrew Haskins from National Drone Pros learned how to operate the Sterblue App — in one day. Andrew is also part of the DroneBase network.

Once again, Sterblue spread its wings and flew sky high — this time for Energijos Skirstymo Operatorius AB (ESO) and Lietuvos Energija innovation hub (LE) in Lithuania. While carrying out electric grid inspections, our drone operators could gain exciting insights into the forests and birds of the Baltic State.

We are happy to announce a new partnership with United States drone-network operator, DroneBase, whose headquarters are located in Los Angeles, CA. Sterblue, based in France and in Los Angeles, CA builds software for drones to inspect power lines and wind turbines automatically. The announcement of this newly formed partnership with DroneBase comes just two months after the announcement that Sterblue would be entering the North American market.

French start-up, Sterblue, is officially open for business in the United States and has big plans to re-invent the world of energy infrastructure inspections in the U.S., starting in California. Sterblue has developed a software for drones to inspect power grids and wind turbines automatically.

Sterblue officially reached its third continent! After Europe and Africa, Sterblue inspected its first asian electrical grids in Hong-Kong. I am just returning from a 5 days trip in Hong-Kong to meet CLP (China Light and Power), the local utility company.

Sterblue is now deploying its automatic distribution grid inspection solution over two continents (maybe soon three, but shhh no spoilers yet) ! Last week I returned from a ten day trip to the Ivory Coast in order to deploy Sterblue’s solutions to our local customer; African Techno Lab, a partnership company of the CIE (Compagnie Ivoirienne d’Électricité)Africa far away from the clichés.
