Who are Above Surveying?
Above Surveying was founded in 2016 with a mission to accelerate the renewable energy transition through innovation and intelligent software. We work with over 500 of the world’s leading solar companies and have worked on more than 5,000 solar projects globally, representing over £30 billion in asset value.

As specialists in solar plant data and analytics, we provide high-quality insights that enable our clients to improve the quality and efficiency of solar projects at every stage of their lifecycle. With a reputation for excellence supported by international partnerships and quality assurance accreditations, we are proud to play a critical role in the digital transformation of the solar industry.

What have we been up to in 2024?
2024 has been a pivotal year for Above Surveying. We launched new collaborations with global partners to introduce end-to-end solutions for solar module quality assurance, covering the entire lifecycle of solar modules. Our Digital Twin solution continues to set the standard for traceability and accountability, and we have expanded its capabilities to support more sustainable solar energy deployment.

We’ve also grown our footprint, supporting an increasing number of projects worldwide, including several high-profile developments in Europe and North America. These achievements reflect our commitment to innovation, quality, and delivering exceptional value to our clients.

What are we planning for the future?
Looking ahead, we aim to further innovate within the solar industry, driving digitalisation to optimise asset performance and sustainability. We are actively expanding our service portfolio to encompass emerging technologies and solutions that address industry challenges, such as autonomous drones and full lifecycle module quality assurance.

We are also strengthening our partnerships to ensure that Above remains at the forefront of global solar energy transformation. Our vision is to empower the solar industry with the tools and insights it needs to achieve a rapid, sustainable energy transition.

Do we think Essex is a place for business?
Absolutely! Essex is a thriving hub for innovation, with a strong entrepreneurial spirit and access to talented professionals across a range of industries. Its proximity to London, excellent transport links, and supportive local networks make it an ideal base for businesses like Above Surveying.

The region’s growing focus on sustainability aligns perfectly with our mission, and we are proud to contribute to Essex’s reputation as a leader in renewable energy and technology. The collaborative atmosphere here fosters innovation, and we look forward to continuing our journey as part of Essex’s dynamic business community.
