The Oil And Gas Giant Total And Google Develop Tool To Accelerate The Deployment Of Photovoltaic Solar Panels On Residential Roofs

The French energy giant Total and Google are launching a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool to help accelerate the deployment of residential photovoltaic solar panels. 200 thousand jobs in Brazil were generated through the deployment of photovoltaic solar energy

Together, Google and Total developed Solar Mapper, a tool that can provide accurate and quick estimates for the solar potential of homes using a completely new AI algorithm.

The duo claims to deliver better results than similar tools due to the quality of data extracted from satellite images, the clarity of solar potential estimates, the relevance of the technology to be installed, and the global geographical coverage of the tool.

Solar Mapper is scheduled to be launched initially in Europe, before becoming global. It can provide over 90% geographical coverage of France – Total’s home market – encouraging more people to assess the solar potential of their homes.

“Solar Mapper will enable Total to deploy solar panels on residential rooftops more quickly, in order to provide its customers with more affordable solar photovoltaic energy”, said Marie-Noëlle Séméria, Chief Technology Officer at Total.

“Combining Total’s expertise in photovoltaic solar energy with Google Cloud’s expertise in artificial intelligence and databases, we were able to develop an attractive and innovative offering in just 6 months.”

The tool will initially be only for residential buildings, but Total stated that it intends to develop a version for industrial and commercial buildings in the future.

Total Aims To Become A World Leader In Renewable Energy Production

The French energy giant stated that Solar Mapper is part of its ambition to “become a world leader in renewable energy production, aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050”.

This is not the first tool launched by Google to assess the solar potential of properties, having brought its Sunroof platform to British residences along with E.On in 2018.

Total stated that around 40% of the group’s investments are dedicated to ‘low-carbon energy’.
