Thermal power plants, wind farms, photovoltaic fields, electricity distribution networks: energy sector technicians work in demanding environments where field documentation is just as critical as the intervention itself. Between dead zones, strict regulatory requirements, thermal images to incorporate, and signatures to collect before leaving the site, reporting absorbs a disproportionate amount of time.
EasyReportGen turns your tablet or smartphone into a compliant inspection report production tool — directly on the production site, even without a connection. Structured data entry, annotated photos with measurements, touch signatures, instant PDF generation. The report leaves the site at the same time as the technician.
Field observations
Energy professionals produce hundreds of reports per site per year: periodic inspections, corrective interventions, compliance audits, thermal diagnostics. The majority are still written on paper or transcribed at the office after the intervention.
Industry solution
Software designed to produce inspection and intervention reports directly from the production site. Not a generic form, but a professional report — with annotated photos, measurements, signatures, and a layout that meets the sector's requirements.
EasyReportGen works entirely without an internet connection. On an offshore wind farm, inside a mountain hydroelectric plant, or deep inside an underground transformer substation, the technician enters their report, takes photos, annotates measurements, and collects signatures. The PDF is generated locally on the device using PWA technology and IndexedDB storage. Synchronisation happens automatically as soon as the network becomes available again, with no data loss or duplication.
The technician photographs the inspected equipment directly from within the application. They annotate each image with arrows, circles, free text, and measurement values (temperatures, voltages, insulation resistance). Thermal images imported from a FLIR or Seek Thermal camera are annotated in the same way. Each photo is automatically geolocated and timestamped. Annotations are embedded in the final PDF, making the report self-explanatory for anyone who was not on site.
Report templates are structured to cover the checkpoints required by the relevant electrical safety standards for low-voltage and HV/LV installations. Sections include installation identification, checkpoints by category, measurement records, classified non-conformities with corrective actions, and signature fields. Every template is fully customisable in the Studio to match your internal procedures. The technician cannot skip a checkpoint: the template structure guides them through the entire inspection.
The report is finalised at the intervention site. The technical manager or client signs directly on the tablet screen. The PDF is generated with your company branding, annotated photos, measurements, and signatures. The document is delivered before leaving the site — by email, direct share, or download. No more waiting three days for an intervention report. Immediate delivery speeds up return-to-service decisions on critical installations.
Industry library
Report templates designed for energy sector professionals. Each template is customisable in the Studio: add your logo, adapt the sections, modify the fields and checkpoints to suit your needs.
Standard checkpoints for low-voltage installations, insulation and continuity measurements, verification of differential protection, classified non-conformities by severity, annotated photos of panels and connections. Suitable for initial and periodic inspections.

The process of producing an energy inspection report with EasyReportGen follows a natural flow that matches the actual sequence of work on site.
Key features for energy
Remote production sites, technically demanding environments, strict standards. EasyReportGen is designed to work under the specific conditions of the energy sector.
Standards covered
Energy templates are designed to meet the documentation requirements of the main standards and frameworks in the sector. Every checkpoint is pre-configured to ensure report completeness.
Return on investment
Time spent writing inspection reports manually is a hidden cost in the energy sector. Every hour on administration is an hour less on preventive maintenance and field supervision.
Concrete calculation for an energy technician team:
Manual writing of a network inspection report (field notes + photo sorting + Word formatting + sending + archiving): 55 minutes on average.
The same report with EasyReportGen (structured field entry + annotated photos + integrated measurements + on-site signature + PDF): 12 minutes.
Time saved per report: 43 minutes. Over 12 inspections per week, that is 8 hours and 36 minutes recovered per technician every week.
For a team of 8 technicians working on a distribution network: over 68 hours per week redirected to preventive maintenance instead of administrative writing.
Beyond time savings, documentation quality improves: zero missed checkpoints thanks to structured templates, zero unidentified photos thanks to automatic geolocation, zero transmission delays thanks to on-site PDF generation.
Use cases by sub-sector
The energy sector covers very different trades. EasyReportGen adapts to the specific constraints of each sub-sector through the template customisation Studio.
Maintenance technicians working on distribution networks inspect transformer substations, distribution cabinets, and overhead or underground lines. With EasyReportGen, each inspection is documented with geolocated substation photos, insulation resistance measurements, and load readings. The report is finalised on site, with the substation reference, GPS location, and recorded non-conformities — ready to be attached to the work order in the CMMS.
Photovoltaic park auditors inspect hundreds of modules per site. Integration of thermal images allows hotspots to be detected and documented (defective cells, short-circuited bypass diodes). The PV audit template includes verification of connections, inverters, junction boxes, and cabling, with string production records. The geolocated report enables anomalies to be mapped across the entire park.
A wind turbine inspection covers the blades (leading edge erosion, cracks, lightning strike damage), the nacelle (gearbox, generator, pitch and yaw systems), the tower, and the foundations. EasyReportGen allows the technician to document each component with annotated photos, vibration readings, and SCADA alarm histories. The report is produced directly in the nacelle or at the base of the machine, even without network coverage.
User feedback
Our technicians work on transformer substations and photovoltaic parks that are often in areas with no signal. Before EasyReportGen, reports were written at the office the next day, sometimes two days later. We lost details, photos were no longer linked to the right equipment. Now the report is finalised and signed before leaving the site. The time saving is significant, but it is above all the quality and traceability of reports that has changed. Our compliance audits have passed without issue since we adopted the tool.
