Revolutionizing Solar Energy Deployment for Derby Homes Through Aerial Photography

Source: Dyson Energy Services
Bluesky Aerial Photography collaborated with Derby Homes, a subsidiary of Derby City Council, to transform solar energy deployment and combat climate change. By leveraging advanced geospatial technologies such as high-resolution aerial photography, photogrammetry, and LiDAR data analysis, the project aimed to identify suitable roof coverings across Derby's housing stock for integrated solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. This innovative approach not only boosted solar energy output but also reduced carbon emissions, aligning with Derby's commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Through the seamless integration of geospatial data and automated algorithms, the project offered a cost-effective and efficient solution to address pressing energy and environmental challenges, ultimately benefiting residents and communities while advancing towards a cleaner, greener future.
