The Challenge

Why Serial Number Capture Matters

Manually collecting solar panel serial numbers for warranty claims or insurance is slow, expensive, and prone to errors. Serial number verification is the cornerstone of effective solar asset management — the most reliable method for processing warranty claims and validating insurance.

Without accurate, granular data, asset managers risk significant financial loss and operational downtime. Futurewise Aerial provides the UK's market-leading drone serial number capture service, transforming this costly problem into a strategic advantage.
