ESI Robotics has been awarded funding under the Portugal 2030 programme, reinforcing its commitment to innovation and the development of solutions that transform industry. The project, entitled SPARK - Solar Park Automated Robotic Kit, received funding of around €780,000.
The solar energy sector faces significant challenges regarding safety, automation, and efficiency in the assembly of photovoltaic solar parks. It is in this context that SPARK was born. This project is part of ESI Robotics’ strategy to actively contribute to the energy transition, providing advanced solutions that increase productivity and accelerate the adoption of innovative technologies.
SPARK emerges as an innovative proposal and a response to the pressing demands of the renewable energy market, addressing the persistent need for more technological processes. The project will meet the emerging requirements of the solar energy sector, offering a disruptive solution that promises to revolutionise the paradigm of solar park installation, fostering competitiveness and innovation within the industry.
ESI Robotics is committed to technological innovation as a driver of differentiation in the solar energy market by developing an autonomous, multifunctional, and innovative system. Beyond optimising the process of solar park installation, the project also aims to redefine industry standards of efficiency and safety, contributing to greater sustainability in the energy sector. By aligning with sustainability and innovation goals, SPARK not only promises to transform the paradigm of solar park installation but also strengthens Portugal’s commitment to leading the way in clean and renewable technologies. The implementation of this system anticipates improvements in both efficiency and safety in solar installations, while delivering a significant boost towards a low-carbon, sustainable energy future. SPARK offers an autonomous solution capable of operating on challenging terrains, automating processes, and reducing reliance on manual labour.
With the support of Portugal 2030, SPARK will be developed as a market-ready product, positioning itself as a pioneering solution for companies and operators of solar parks in Portugal and abroad.
At ESI Robotics, we believe that the future of sustainable energy relies on automation.
