A high-tech maintenance solution provider, employing AI-enabled robotics across the renewables industry, has secured its largest ever investment thanks to a consortium of investors.

Perceptual Robotics, which is based in the UK and has sites across Europe, provides technology and services for autonomous wind turbine inspections utilising artificial intelligence and drones. The company will use the pre-Series A round to plan its expansion into North America and Latin America, as well as double its team.

It is the latest step for the Bristol-based company, which earlier this year announced it had launched operations in Southeast Asia.

Kostas Karachalios, CEO of Perceptual Robotics, said: “We are thrilled to announce this latest round of funding.

“2022 revenues were strong and the raise will be used to significantly increase the geographical footprint of our already substantial client base as well as scaling up capacity. We also continue to develop, the raise will help us enhance our product offering and further develop and expand our existing products.

“Perceptual Robotics has a proud history in inspecting and processing data from wind turbines and blades onshore with trusted partners across Europe and the UK. With this latest investment, we look forward to continuing our vital work into offshore inspections and advanced analytics, guaranteeing our customers have everything they need to ensure their assets are delivering time and again.”
