Charge Robotics, a startup founded by MIT alumni Banks Hunter and Max Justicz, has developed an advanced automation system to streamline the assembly and installation of utility-scale solar farms. The system automates the construction of solar farm components into an automated assembly line, which then transfers them to their final locations. This approach enhances efficiency, quality, speed, and safety while significantly reducing overall costs. The technology reduces reliance on manual labor by automating most of the mechanical installation process. It also uses machine-vision technology to ensure quality control and reduces repetitive manual labor. Solar energy, accounting for 81% of new U.S. electricity capacity in 2023, is crucial for industry growth.
