performance with the “Terra Xross 1” while offering it at approximately one-third the price of competing products, making it more affordable and accessible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Norway is a major power nation where hydropower accounts for around 90% of electricity generation, creating sustained demand for maintenance and inspection across critical infrastructure such as power plants and transmission & distribution assets (Note 1). In addition, the oil and natural gas industry is a cornerstone sector, accounting for approximately 60% of the total value of Norway\u2019s exports of goods in 2024, and the country continues to operate a large number of producing oil and gas fields (Note 2, Note 3). Against this backdrop\u2014particularly in the offshore sector\u2014there is a growing need to upgrade equipment inspection practices that support safety and quality. In both the power and offshore industries, inspection needs are significant in environments where on-site access entails higher risk for workers, such as turbine halls, cable tunnels, indoor substation facilities, and confined compartments within offshore installations\u2014making Norway a market with strong potential for indoor inspection drones.<\/span><\/p>\n

UAS VOSS is a distributor of industrial drone solutions with specialized inspection sensors.The company has a proven track record of drone distribution since 2022 with extensive experience in the smart grid and infrastructure inspection sector. <\/span>
\n<\/span>Over the years, UAS VOSS has built a proven track record by delivering high-end solutions to major players in the electric power and offshore industries. Their success in large-scale mapping and infrastructure inspection projects underscores their deep-rooted expertise in the energy sector, with a customer base that includes medium and large-scale grid operators such as Sygnir, Hydro, Eviny, and Tendranett.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Notably, their technical excellence was internationally recognized in 2025 when they were awarded \u201cBest Specialty Drone Operator 2025 \u2013 Norway\u201d at the Scandinavian Business Awards hosted by EU Business News. In addition, UAS VOSS is collaborating with Vinde TT on offshore drone inspection services\u2014a new partnership that both parties look forward to developing, with the aim of creating synergies in 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Going forward, Terra Drone and UAS VOSS will work together to broaden the reach of \u201cTerra Xross 1\u201d which is revolutionizing the indoor inspection industry by making drone technology more accessible to a wider customer base that has been hesitant to adopt it due to concerns over unstable flight performance and high price. Under this agreement, Terra Drone and UAS VOSS will provide enhanced and more accessible customer support. <\/span><\/p>\n
