Infravisiona company that goals to transform the way power lines are built and maintained using aerial robotics has raised $91 million in Series B funding.
Singapore GIC led the financing, which also included participation from Activate Capital Partners, Hitachi venturesand an existing sponsor Energy Impact Partners. The round brings Austin, Texas-based Infravision’s total profits to nearly $115 million since its inception in 2018, according to Crunchbase data. Its valuation has not been disclosed.
The company raised $23 million series A round hosted by Energy Impact Partners in September 2023.
Infravision says its “flexible and automated approach” eliminates many of the emergencies and hazards inherent in conventional power line stringing methods. Thanks to this, projects might be implemented faster and cheaper, the company claims.
Overall, startups developing robotics technologies earned just over $10.3 billion in 2025, according to Crunchbase data. Almost two months into the 12 months, this amount is already 36% higher than the $7.54 billion raised by startups in the industry in all of 2024.

Preparing for increased demand
Infravision says it is going to use the latest capital to speed up the deployment of the TX system – an integrated combination of drones, intelligent ground equipment and stringing equipment. He also plans to hire “aggressively,” he said. Cameron Van Der Bergco-founder and CEO of Infravision. He expects the company to have 150 to 200 employees by the end of the 12 months.
The aerial robotics system has been used in power line projects around the world, including Powerlink Genex in Australia and emergency response deployments with PG&E in California, Van Der Berg said in the release. PG&E is its largest U.S. customer, Van Der Berg – a robotics engineer by training – told Crunchbase News by email.
“Infravision’s core technology is an integrated system of four key components that automate network construction,” he added. “It is a system, not just a drone, that delivers helicopter-class performance on an industrial scale for some of the largest and longest transmission projects in the world.”
Infravision operates a B2B revenue model, focusing on utilities, contractors and developers as its key buyers. The company’s goal is to establish long-term, strategic partnerships with these clients, under which it rents equipment and provides services. “This investment will help us scale to provide a faster, safer and more cost-effective way to meet growing electricity demand as we race to double grid infrastructure by 2040.” – he added. “With Australia becoming a proven market, Infravision is now focused on expanding its operations in North America.”
