Helm said that before the company began employing drones there was a great variation in the amount of time site technicians spent measuring a roof. It has also reduced the number off issues involving the fitting of solar installations by 35%, Sunrun said. The drone program has reduced the time for site technicians to complete a survey to an average of 15 minutes versus two hours for manually conducted surveys. In its peak month, Sunrun conducted 7,000 drone flights recording data on customer roofs from the ground using DroneDeploy’s mapping software. The company now flies about 245 drones and employs the same number of site technicians who are certified as Part 107 drone pilots.
