Tata Power CoE automated solar panel installation inspections using Amazon SageMaker AI, Bedrock, and Rekognition

Use case typeDocument automationUpdated Jun 13, 2026

Tata Power Center of Technology Excellence (CoE), with Oneture Technologies as AI analytics partner, built an AI-powered inspection platform for solar rooftop installation operations. The solution automates end-to-end inspection workflows that were previously manual, error-prone, and inconsistent across teams as installation volume scaled.
