About

Jeremie Bourque is a leading researcher in the field of autonomous robotics for critical infrastructure, with a primary focus on the inspection and maintenance of electrical power systems. His most notable contribution is the development of an all-weather autonomous inspection robot for electrical substations, a breakthrough that addresses the immense challenge of monitoring geographically distributed, high-voltage equipment. This work, published in 2022 and already garnering 15 citations, demonstrates a practical solution for inspecting power transformers, circuit breakers, and other essential components under harsh environmental conditions. By enabling continuous, reliable data collection without human exposure to dangerous live equipment, Bourque’s research directly enhances the safety and operational efficiency of electric utilities. His work bridges the gap between advanced robotics and real-world industrial needs, offering a scalable approach to modernizing aging grid infrastructure. For students and researchers in robotics and energy systems, Bourque’s contributions exemplify how applied engineering can solve pressing challenges in asset management and predictive maintenance.
