OzEnergy and VSight sign cooperation protocol on augmented reality (AR) applications for solar PV projects
One of the challenges of the pandemic was the development of the ability to solve problems remotely. International companies focused on digital solutions brought by Industry 4.0 in order to ensure the continuity of their services, which were significantly impacted by the travel restrictions.
Izmir, Turkey, 29 January 2021 (Solar Business Hub) — OzEnergy signed a cooperation protocol with the Lithuanian-based international technology firm VSight for the use of augmented reality (AR) applications in solar power plants. The two companies first teamed up and tested the applications on a few pilot projects. After the successful completion of the trials, the two companies decided to collaborate on solar PV projects.
OzEnergy Board Member Fatih Serkan Albayrak stated that the issue of energy 4.0 has been on their agenda for quite some time and that they will continue to invest in digital transformation technologies. Albayrak said that thanks to VSight’s solutions, OzEnergy experts will be able to carry Enerparc AG’s 3000 MW experience to any point in the region. Referring to the successful completion of the first pilot studies and analyses; Albayrak emphasized that wearable technologies will be used in PV projects for the first time in areas such as training, inspection, project management, and quality control.
