Summary
This Working Group Report explores the use of autonomous platforms and robots for power cable operation and maintenance. It presents global application scenarios—such as tunnel, submarine, and joint bay inspections—and outlines key technologies like navigation, AI, and wireless communication. Robotic systems enhance safety, inspection precision, and operational efficiency while reducing long-term costs. Technical and architectural requirements are analyzed alongside benefit and cost comparisons. The report also includes real-world use cases and provides recommendations for standardization and future development.
