⚠ Tasks AI will take over or replace
  • 使用AI自動生成屋頂光伏佈局設計和傾角優化
  • 通過AI聊天機器人處理客戶諮詢和初步報價
  • 利用AI預測天氣和發電量,規劃安裝時間表
  • 自動生成驗收報告和合規文件
↑ Tasks AI will augment
  • AI驅動無人機快速勘測屋頂結構和陰影分析,提高安裝前評估效率
  • AI輔助即時檢測電氣接線錯誤,提升安全性和一次通過率
  • AI工具提供個性化培訓(如AR模擬接線),加速新手學習
  • AI優化庫存管理和物流調度,減少物料等待時間
🛡 Human moat
  • 屋頂手動搬運和定位太陽能板(精細體力勞動)
  • 現場電氣接線和故障排查(需動手能力和經驗)
  • 與客戶當面溝通、說服及訂製方案(人際信任)
  • 符合澳洲電氣法規(AS/NZS 3000)的合規判斷與安全操作
  • 高空作業安全監督與應急處理
Skills to build (next 5 years)
  • 光伏設計軟體(如Helioscope、PVsyst)操作
  • 無人機操作及影像分析基礎
  • 電氣安全與合規(AS/NZS 3000)更新知識
