Aerial solar inspections service Heliolytics is now under the Zeitview umbrella today after Zeitview acquired the former division of NovaSource Power Services. Heliolytics data insights will join with Zeitview’s expertise in aerial inspection technologies to better serve the energy and utility industries.
The majority of Heliolytics staff will join Zeitview, and the team’s presence in Toronto, Canada, will continue. The amount of the deal was not disclosed.
“Heliolytics are pioneers in the solar industry and have earned a commendable reputation for their unwavering commitment to quality, precision, and exceptional customer service — values we hold in the highest esteem,” said Dan Burton, founder and CEO at Zeitview. “Their expertise and dedication are valuable as we continue developing groundbreaking solutions that redefine inspection standards within the renewable energy sector. We are excited for this next chapter in our journey, where our united teams create a complete market-winning solution.”
For renewable energy customers, this collaboration reinforces Zeitview’s multi-asset approach to solar, wind and utilities. For property owners, it offers critical insights into the performance of their rooftop solar facilities. For all customers, Heliolytics’ international operations in Europe, Latin America and the Asian Pacific are also being combined with Zeitview’s global footprint in those same regions.
“Joining forces with Zeitview is a tremendous opportunity to further the renewable energy industry,” said Jocelyne Moyer, Head of Heliolytics. Post-acquisition, Moyer takes the title of Senior Director of Strategy and Operations at Zeitview. “We have a shared commitment with Zeitview to deep client partnerships, science-driven innovation, and unparalleled responsiveness to our global clients. I am excited to join the leadership team and look forward to collaborations that will strengthen Zeitview’s role in the operations and maintenance of renewable energy assets.”
Heliolytics’ inspection tools and integrated analytics are now supported by Zeitview’s AI/ML data processing engine. With this addition, Zeitview doubles the reach and breadth of its airplane operations and adds topography, EPC and drone solutions to Heliolytics, all of which can translate into faster, more comprehensive customer results.
DroneBase rebranded as Zeitview earlier this year.
