XR Solutions for the Energy Sector
The energy sector faces the challenge of modernizing aging infrastructure, raising safety standards, and accelerating the energy transition. XR technologies offer transformative solutions.
Plant Inspection & Safety
AR-assisted inspections of refineries, pipelines, and substations reduce risks. Technicians see real-time sensor data (pressure, temperature, flow, vibration) as overlays. Hazard zones and ATEX areas are visually highlighted. Drone-based inspection data is visualized as 3D point clouds in AR.
Wind Farm & Solar Planning
VR simulations enable evaluation of wind farm sites considering wind profiles, shadow flicker, and noise emissions. Stakeholders can experience planned wind turbines at full scale in the landscape. For solar parks, shading analyses are optimized in AR, increasing energy yield by up to 8%.
Training for High-Voltage Environments
VR training modules simulate work on high-voltage lines (110kV-380kV), switchgear, and transformers. Employees train switching operations and grounding procedures in a safe virtual environment. Accident rates have been reduced by up to 35% through VR training.
Smart Grid Visualization
Digital twins of the power grid visualize load flows and grid bottlenecks in real-time. Control room operators use AR dashboards for an intuitive overview of grid frequency and voltage bands. Predictive analytics warn of potential overloads before they occur.
