BladeRanger expands European operations
Autonomous drone-based infrastructure maintenance pioneer, BladeRanger, is expanding its European operations across Southern Europe, as Greece continues to invest heavily in large-scale solar infrastructure.
The visit follows BladeRanger's recent milestone approval by the Civil Aviation Authority of Israel, granting the company permanent authorisation to operate its DJI Agras T50 drone platform for infrastructure cleaning - a certification achieved by very few companies worldwide, and the only system of its kind operating without a pressurised hose connection.
"BladeRanger provides fully autonomous robotic and drone-based cleaning systems for solar and industrial infrastructure on commercial and utility-scale sites worldwide," says Shmuel. "They are enhanced by AI analytics that optimise performance and reduce operational cost.
"This approval represents a historic milestone for us. It's the result of years of development, testing and compliance with some of the most demanding aviation standards. Very few autonomous systems in the world have received such certification, especially for drone platforms operating without a hose.
BladeRanger already operates in Italy, Asia and the Middle East, and is currently advancing entry into India and Africa. The company is also developing AI-driven flight and mission planning technologies that enable computer-assisted flight, precise operation and near-complete autonomous functionality in real time.
