Why PlanetWatch
Next-generation AI that reconciles renewable energy with biodiversity
Our technology is built for renewable energy operators and developers who refuse to choose between performance and ecological responsibility.
Biodiversity Preserved
Precise, real-time detection identifies and protects sensitive species — birds, bats, and migratory fish — around your installations, on land or offshore.
Reliable Real-Time Data
Instant, automated analysis of images, sound, and flight trajectories lets you make informed decisions while meeting every regulatory constraint.
Lower Costs & Constraints
Anticipate and reduce unnecessary shutdowns, streamline your processes, and stay ahead of tightening environmental standards with confidence.
How It Works
From real-time detection to predictive analysis
PlanetWatch combines machine learning and deep learning to acquire, interpret, and classify data intelligently — a complete pipeline from the field to actionable insight.
1
Identify, Classify, Count
Detect birds, bats, and migratory fish from up to 6 miles away. Estimate abundance, evolution, and survival rates to inform new ecosystem preservation strategies.
2
Understand Ecosystems
Through image, sound, and trajectory analysis, PlanetWatch delivers a clearer picture of how installations impact local wildlife.
3
Optimize Processes
Reduce collision mortality and eliminate unnecessary emergency turbine shutdowns with predictive, data-driven mitigation.
4
Prevent & Protect
A patent-pending visual deterrent integrates directly with SCADA to slow or stop turbines when needed — a simple, scalable way to meet growing regulatory demands.
Solutions
Built for every renewable energy site
Whether you operate a wind farm, a hydropower dam, or a mixed-use site, PlanetWatch adapts to your environment and your species of concern.
Onshore Wind
Autonomous avifaune surveillance 24/7 with edge computing. Reduce collision risk and unnecessary curtailment while protecting birds and bats.
Offshore Wind
Monitor seabirds and marine life around offshore installations with computer vision tuned for harsh, remote environments.
Hydropower
Track migratory fish trajectories near dams and intakes. Inform safe passage strategies and meet environmental flow requirements.
Solar & Mixed Sites
Detect necrophagous and granivorous species attracted by agricultural work, and adapt mitigation in real time across mixed-use sites.
Traction & Results
Real projects, quantified impact
A passionate team combining AI expertise with ecological commitment, backed by a strategic environmental partnership with Calidris, for a harmonious coexistence between energy and biodiversity.

Agricultural CurtailmentAgricultural Curtailment Module
An innovative module that detects farming activity in real time to manage collision risk for necrophagous and granivorous birds near rural wind farms.
Benchmark StudyAvian Detection System Comparison in a Wind Farm
In a southern France wind farm, we tested multiple AI algorithms in real time to reduce false positives and improve reactivity — protecting birds while keeping the park efficient.
Protected SpeciesBlack Stork Environmental Study
Using AI and real-time trajectory analysis, we detected black storks, mapped collision risk zones, and optimized turbine placement to meet strict environmental requirements.
