Guangdong Crownpower Electric Power Technology Development, a Chinese robotics firm founded in 2006 in Foshan, specializes in maintaining high-voltage power grids, a dangerous task traditionally performed by humans. Initially a power-safety solutions provider for China Telecom, Crownpower began using drones for inspections in 2013 and developed a power line coating material in 2008. Since 2018, the company has focused on robotics, deploying robots to handle the hazardous work of safety inspections and maintenance of power grids in China and abroad. Unlike many peers focusing on humanoid robots, Crownpower targets the utility sector, addressing the growing global demand for safer, automated solutions in electric grid maintenance.
