AES launches Maximo, its AI-enabled solar installation robot
Key points
- AES introduced Maximo as a robotic system that works alongside construction crews to automate placing and attaching solar modules.
- The company said Maximo had already installed nearly 10 MW of solar at launch and was projected to install 100 MW by 2025.
- AES said it planned to use Maximo across up to 5 GW of solar backlog and pipeline over the following three years, including Bellefield in California.
Company context
Global power and energy company with a proprietary robotics program centered on Maximo, an AI-enabled system built to automate utility-scale solar panel installation. Its robotics relevance comes from owning and deploying a real field-construction robot inside large energy infrastructure projects rather than operating as a standalone robotics OEM.
