Christina Park

Sr. Director of Energy Strategy @ Skydio

Park recently joined Skydio as the Sr. Director of Energy Strategy after 15+ years at the New York Power Authority. Her experience in the utility industry spanned Engineering from design to commissioning through multiple Life Extension and Modernization programs in Power Generation before a shift to Strategic Operations and Asset Management. As Sr. Director of Asset Intelligence Solutions, she led the comprehensive effort to operationalize technology across the enterprise. By standing up the Reliability Centered Maintenance program and identifying the gaps for Technical Enablement to bring solutions to scale, her department tested and incorporated robotics, sensors, and data analytics to connect problems to solutions. Park graduated from MIT with her BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering.

Corey Hitchcock

Utility Solutions Specialist @ Skydio

Corey joined Skydio as a utility solutions specialist in early 2023. Prior to Skydio, Corey led UAS Program Development and Operations with Southern Co. Aerial Services. Corey developed methods for operating drones across the nuclear, gas, and power verticals, notably flying one of the first UAS inspections on an operating nuclear reactor. At Skydio, he is developing dock based drone use cases for autonomous inspections as well as focused routine, event based, and security inspections for substations. These dock based inspections are focused on reducing the duration and frequency of outages, allowing for predictive based maintenance plans to be implemented.

SUMMARY

In the utility industry, the right inspection data is vital. But capturing the right data at the right time, transforming that data into actionable insights, and weaving it into your workflows is a constant battle.

Join us for an interactive webinar + Q&A session with Christina Park, former Sr. Director of Asset Intelligence Solutions at the New York Power Authority. Christina will explain the journey from time-based to condition-based asset maintenance, and how drones transform the way utilities can monitor the health and security of infrastructure to make better decisions that optimize cost, risk, and performance—without any guesswork.

Dive deeper into: Better Asset Inspection: Drones aren't just tech toys; they're tools that help Utilities efficiently inspect when and where it's most needed. Operational Efficiencies: Find out how drone solutions can reduce outages, give detailed inspections, and help balance budgets.

Data-Driven Decision Making: With real-time data, shift from reactive to proactive maintenance solutions. Practical Examples: From power generation to power supply, and the substations in between.

Tune in if you care about: Innovation: Bring new solutions to old problems. Safety: Keep your team out of harm's way by reducing manual checks.

Reputation: Be known for reliability, with fewer equipment failures and service interruptions.

Savings: Spot issues early, avoid large repair bills, and cut down on costly downtime.

Don't miss out on this chance to learn how drones are shaping the future of utility inspection.
