Published

on

MONTREAL, Nov. 12, 2024 /CNW/ – (NYSE: CAE) (TSX: CAE) CAE announced today that after 20 years at CAE, including 15 as President and Chief Executive Officer, and after spearheading the making of CAE as a global leader in training for civil aviation and defence and security forces, Marc Parent will be leaving the company at next year’s Annual General Meeting in August 2025, as part of an ongoing succession plan. Until this time, Mr. Parent will continue to lead CAE in his role as CEO and as a member of the Board of Directors, advance CAE’s strategic objectives and ensure an effective transition.

“Under Marc’s leadership, CAE has become a global leader in training for civil aviation and defence and security forces, through which we have furthered our mission to make the world a safer place” said Alan N. MacGibbon, Chair of the Board of Directors.” During his tenure, CAE’s annual revenue has nearly doubled to $4.3 billion from $2.2 billion. This was driven in large part by the transformation he led from being primarily an industrial products company to becoming the world leader in aviation training solutions, with over two-thirds of annual revenue coming from recurring services. These accomplishments cement his legacy as a high calibre leader in the aerospace industry and create a solid foundation for the future.”

“Marc’s lasting impact on CAE and global aerospace is unanimously recognized by the Board,” said Mr. MacGibbon. “As we continue our succession process for the next CEO of CAE, we are fortunate to benefit from the considerable leadership depth he has built across the organization, placing us in an excellent position for sustainable growth.”

Added Mr. Parent, “It has been the privilege of a lifetime to lead this company over the last 15 years. Having been engaged in succession planning discussions for some time, the Board and I are fully aligned on the process and transition to CAE’s next CEO. Over the decades, I have been able to work together with an extraordinary team, reshaping the aerospace industry by creating something truly unique, and prepared thousands of people in critical roles for the moments that matter. I am proud of the numerous awards and overall recognition that CAE has received, of the solid relationships we developed, and I am grateful for everyone who contributed to making our company what it is today.”

“CAE’s innovative technology and outstanding people now set the standard for training and safety worldwide. When I conclude this unique journey next year, it will be with the knowledge that given our unparalleled training and software solutions, the strong secular growth trends in Civil and Defence, and our robust order backlog, the future is bright for CAE.”

Consistent with its ongoing and rigorous succession planning process, the Board of Directors has retained a leading executive search firm to conduct a comprehensive global search, which will include evaluating internal and external candidates, to identify a new CEO to lead the Company into the future. The Human Resources Committee of the Board will oversee the search process with support and assistance from Mr. Parent.

The total mileage of UAV transmission line inspection of State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company exceeded 50,000 kilometers

Published

on

By

TURFAN, China, Nov. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On November 22, the transmission and operation inspection center of State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company successfully completed the line inspection task of the 110 thousand volt Jiaolang line, marking the company’s 389th unmanned aerial vehicle inspection task in the year. Since 2016, the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company has actively applied and promoted UAV inspection technology, and has achieved full coverage of UAV transmission line inspection in complex terrain such as mountains, deserts, and Gobi.

The complex and diverse terrain of Turfan, including high mountains, deserts and Gobi, has brought arduous challenges to the inspection of transmission lines. However, through the application of drone technology, the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company has not only overcome these difficulties, but also achieved remarkable results in the operation and inspection of transmission lines. At the same time, with the intelligent upgrading and digital transformation of power grid equipment and management, UAV technology is widely used in maintenance and hanging, live monitoring, power grid construction and other fields, and the intelligent level of transmission line operation and inspection has been continuously improved. Up to now, the company’s drone inspection has covered 215 transmission lines of 35 thousand volts and above, with a total mileage of more than 50,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to the length of a week around the Earth’s equator.

In the next step, the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company will continue to expand the application scenarios of UAVs, actively introduce new technologies and equipment, and accelerate the transformation of intelligent operation and inspection mode. The company plans to continuously improve the level of equipment operation and inspection, consolidate the foundation of equipment safety, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the power grid by further optimizing the drone inspection process and improving the data analysis and processing capabilities.
