On this episode of Dawn of Autonomy, we continue “Energy Month” with Sean Guerre, Executive Director of the Energy Drone & Robotics Coalition — the world’s largest community dedicated to advancing unmanned systems and robotics in energy operations.
Sean has spent over a decade building EDRC into a global network of more than 20,000 professionals and 200+ energy and utility companies, all working to advance the safe and scalable use of drones, robotics, and data in day-to-day energy operations. Under his leadership, EDRC has become the definitive hub where energy asset owners, operators, and technology providers come together to share real-world use cases, best practices, and the trends shaping how oil and gas, utilities, chemical, and critical infrastructure companies deploy autonomous systems at scale.
In this episode, Sean breaks down what it actually takes to move the energy sector from early adoption to scaled deployment — where BVLOS operations, AI-driven inspection, and multi-domain robotics are no longer a future promise but an operational reality unfolding across pipelines, transmission lines, offshore platforms, and refineries today.
Tune in to hear what Sean is seeing on the front lines of energy autonomy — and what’s coming next as the industry prepares for its biggest gathering of the year.
