Hamburg-based Beagle has launched a new long-range drone designed to inspect energy infrastructure, significantly reducing reliance on costly helicopters. The company recently secured €5 million in Seed funding, aiming to enhance its innovative technology. Co-founder Oliver Lichtenstein highlights its compliance with strict EU regulations and operational approval for flights across 80% of the EU. Beagle's drones promise superior resolution compared to satellites and lower emissions than traditional aircraft. As the EU mandates methane emission tracking, the potential market is projected at €2 billion, opening doors for diverse applications.
