Our take

The robotic revolution is well underway, transforming what many people still regard as visions of a distant future into hard reality; and, although the thought of robots replacing humans in the workplace is generally held in poor regard, the opportunity to remove humans from high-risk, hazardous roles is a good one. Energy Robotics supplies software for robots so that monitoring and inspection can be done remotely, for industries with harsh and demanding environments.

Energy Robotics’ platform is one of the first commercially available platforms of its kind, combining a hardware-independent robot OS, cloud-based fleet management, and AI-powered data analysis, to enable robots to be used for remote inspection and monitoring roles in industries such as oil, gas, and petrochemical. The hardware agnostic nature of the company’s software allows it to offer its own solutions alongside a range of third-party hardware, standing out from competitors with this “make robots smart” approach, as opposed to making smart robots.

Energy Robotics has received considerable funding from a range of sources, which the company is using to further develop its solution, and to expand its product portfolio towards providing a robot-as-a-service offering.
