Maximo: Revolutionizing Solar Park Construction with AI Robots

Amazon's AI robot Maximo, created by AES, is transforming the solar park industry by cutting construction time and costs by up to 50%. Maximo, tested in Louisiana's Oak Ridge Solar Farm, is now in action at California's Bellefield project.

With the ability to handle extreme heat and move hundreds of solar panels, Maximo significantly reduces required manpower. AES's innovative approach aims to address labor shortages and accelerate solar farm development to meet escalating energy needs and combat climate change effectively.

Amazon's AI robot Maximo, developed by the energy company AES, reduces time and costs for building solar parks by up to 50%. Maximo has already been used in the construction of the Oak Ridge Solar Farm in Louisiana and is now being used in the Bellefield project in the sandy desert region of Kern County, California, to build a 1 GW solar park with a 1 GW battery storage system that will provide CO₂-free energy to 467,000 households. Maximo can also withstand the extreme heat and will move seve..

Robots Are Coming, and They’re on a Mission: Install Solar Panels

Technology
Environment
AES has introduced Maximo, a robot that can install solar panels twice as fast and at half the cost of humans. Maximo uses AI to position panels in large arrays. AES plans to deploy Maximo at a solar-plus-battery project powering Amazon data centers and aims to build hundreds of similar AI-powered robots. Energy companies are turning to automation to overcome labor shortages and speed up solar farm construction, which has traditionally been very labor-intensive. Without such changes, companies..
