Sarcos Robotics to Launch Autonomous Robot for Solar Panel Installation in 2024

Sarcos Technology and Robotics is set to launch an autonomous robot for solar panel installation in 2024, after receiving validation from the US Department of Energy. The robot can reduce solar farm construction time by almost 40% and could address the anticipated worker shortfall in the industry to meet the Biden administration’s climate targets. The system features an intelligent manipulator robot and an autonomous delivery vehicle that utilizes computer vision and AI software to optimize solar panel installation. The project received $1.9 million in funding from the Solar Energy Technologies Office.
