14 Oct PwC’s Skies Without Limits v3.0 Report

sees.ai is proud to be featured in PwC’s latest report: Skies Without Limits v3.0.

Since 2021, this report has followed ten key players driving the growth of the UK’s drone industry. Over the following years, sees.ai has been featured in each update as a leading case study in the use of drones for infrastructure inspection. 

In this most recent update, we’ve made important advances towards the implementation of our solution. The step up to an “amber” rating in two key categories (regulation and implementation), shows how we’re using our experience, skills, and safety-first technology to develop the regulatory frameworks we need to scale. 

While we celebrate this achievement, the journey is far from over. The growing demand for drone-powered solutions within critical national infrastructure highlights the need for further regulatory advancements; these are key to unlocking the full potential of BVLOS flight. 

As we said in the report:

“The urgency to find a solution has intensified significantly, in line with government announcement of ambitious renewable targets, a flurry of reports calling for co-ordinated and massive action to upgrade the grid and rapidly mounting negative impacts for not doing so … While limited Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) permissions have been obtained, unlocking the use case, additional regulatory progress is still required.”

Thank you to Benjamin Evans and PwC for featuring us, and for making such a strong case for the drone industry’s potential to transform the UK economy and infrastructure. We look forward to being part of the next report.
