The project team, which includes global geo-data specialists Fugro and Heriot-Watt spinout technology company Frontier Robotics, is developing advanced AI and autonomous systems for undertaking remote inspections of offshore wind farms to offer a safe, efficient and sustainable solution for global energy providers.
The Scottish KE awards, now in their 10th year, highlight the exceptional collaborations that deliver economic, environmental and social benefits for Scotland. UNITE has been nominated within the Multi-party Collaboration category, in recognition of the consortium’s innovative knowledge exchange, bringing together a legacy of science, industry expertise and emerging technologies to tackle a real-world challenge.
UNITE aims to develop autonomous, electric remotely-operated vehicles (eROVs) to conduct maintenance and repair on offshore wind turbines
Professor Yvan Petillot is academic co-lead at The National Robotarium and leads the UNITE project at Heriot-Watt.
He said: “It’s an honour to be shortlisted for a Scottish KE Award. By harnessing advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, and subsea engineering with the aim of transforming offshore maintenance and directly supporting Scotland’s net-zero ambitions, we think the UNITE project is an excellent example of truly impactful Knowledge Exchange.”
Amelia Whitelaw, Director of Interface, which organises the Awards, said: “At Interface, we are proud to deliver the Scottish Knowledge Exchange Awards on behalf of Scotland’s vibrant innovation ecosystem.
“These awards are more than just a celebration of achievements—they showcase the transformative power of collaboration between academia and industry. Each finalist represents the spirit of partnership, driving solutions that create lasting economic, environmental, and social impact.”
The Interface Scottish KE Awards will take place at Edinburgh Futures Institute on 19th March.
