- Mumbai’s rising energy needs require more reliable and proactive power solutions.
- Adani Electricity equips its field teams, 'Power Warriors', with advanced mobile thermal imaging tools.
- Smartphone-enabled infrared (IR) devices allow easy, on-the-spot thermal diagnostics.
As Mumbai’s energy demand surges amid rapid urban redevelopment and climate challenges, Adani Electricity has taken a significant leap in strengthening the city’s power infrastructure. The company has equipped its frontline teams, known as 'Power Warriors', with advanced mobile thermal imaging devices to monitor and maintain power assets more effectively.
These compact, smartphone-enabled infrared (IR) tools enable on-the-spot detection of equipment stress and overheating in critical infrastructure such as transformers, switchgear, and distribution panels often before any visible signs of failure emerge. This allows teams to identify and resolve potential issues during their initial site visits, eliminating the need for multiple follow-ups and reducing downtime.
An Adani Electricity spokesperson explained that this technology marks a shift from traditional reactive maintenance to a predictive approach. The mobile IR devices are fully integrated with the company’s digital operations platform, allowing thermal images captured in the field to trigger intelligent workflows powered by AI and machine learning. These workflows help flag problems early, allocate resources efficiently, and monitor patterns across the power grid.
By catching faults early, Adani Electricity ensures greater power stability, even during peak demand periods, leading to fewer unplanned outages and faster resolution of service interruptions. Field teams now make data-driven decisions supported by real-time visuals shared across departments, enhancing overall operational efficiency.
The company reaffirmed its commitment to Mumbai’s residents by providing cutting-edge tools that empower their 'Power Warriors' to act swiftly and smartly. This initiative supports Adani Electricity’s vision of delivering a reliable and resilient power supply that anticipates challenges keeping the city switched on, no matter the circumstances.
