KVS Technologies has entered into a strategic agreement with Spright, Air Methods’ new drone division. Under this agreement, KVS Technologies will launch its services in North America, with Spright exclusively operating all flights for linear infrastructure inspection. This partnership brings together two key players within drone technology and commercial flight operations, with a view to gaining a leading position in the US linear infrastructure inspection market.
The power grid is the world’s most important infrastructure, but it is aging and vulnerable with a large portion in use longer than anticipated. At the same time, increasing electrification is placing enormous demands on these assets. Upgrading the US electrical infrastructure would take decades, while the cost of replacing it is prohibitive.
“We are thrilled to have found a partner in Spright, who shares our drive to create a safer and better future for people everywhere,” Cato Vevatne, Co-Founder and CEO of KVS Technologies was quoted as saying.
“Spright was created to help solve many of the toughest challenges facing communities across North America,” Joe Resnik, President of Spright was quoted as saying.
