PublicPowerX Webinar: Remote Drone Inspection, From an Office Chair 2,000 Miles Away
- The Old Way: An alert happens. A crew rolls. You wait to understand what’s happening.
- The New Way: A remotely docked drone launches automatically. You see the situation live. And act within minutes—not hours.
Remote response with docked drones is now a practical, everyday tool to give you eyes on every asset — anytime, from anywhere. Join us to see how Skydio Dock for X10 is fast, scalable, and designed for the realities of utility operations - whether you’re conducting a planned inspection or responding to an emergency.
What You'll See:
- Remote Operations = workforce multiplier - one remote operator investigating multiple events at multiple sites
- Live remote inspections of a real substation, distribution lines/poles, solar panels, and more with docked drones
- New Features — real-time GIS overlays, live video streaming, alert pins, and more
What You’ll Learn:
- How drones help: cut O&M spend, reduce truck rolls, improve safety, and respond faster
- Multiple use cases beyond distribution: supporting emergency response, wildfire mitigation, security, and post-storm inspection
- This isn’t just for drone teams: it’s built for control centers, engineers, and reliability teams

-
Christina Park, Sr. Director of Energy Strategy, Skydio
-
Corey Hitchcock, Utility Solutions Specialist, Skydio
