ASHEVILLE, NC - August 14, 2025 - Skytree Scientific is revolutionizing the lightning protection industry with its AI-integrated platform, LRA Plus Trademark , [https://skytreescientific.ai/lra-plus-lightning-risk-assessment-software/] offering a transformative approach to infrastructure safety planning. In an era where climate change is intensifying weather phenomena, including increased lightning activity, the demand for advanced and efficient risk management solutions is more crucial than ever.

For decades, managing lightning risk has often been a complex and reactive process, relying on manual assessments and outdated information. However, the landscape is changing. Lightning is a powerful and often underestimated force, capable of inflicting catastrophic damage, disrupting operations, and causing significant financial losses, reaching billions of dollars annually in the US alone. Critical infrastructure, such as data centers, is particularly vulnerable, with downtime leading to substantial financial and reputational consequences. The increasing frequency and intensity of severe weather events linked to a changing climate further highlight the need for sophisticated protection strategies.

Skytree Scientific addresses these challenges head-on with LRA Plus, an AI-enhanced SaaS platform designed to streamline lightning risk assessments and enhance infrastructure resilience. The platform is built to empower engineers and organizations to proactively mitigate risks and safeguard critical infrastructure.

Key features and benefits of LRA Plus include:

*
Enhanced Speed and Efficiency: The platform delivers up to 90% faster completion times for lightning risk assessments by automating time-consuming manual calculation processes.

*
Advanced Automation: Sophisticated capabilities integrate high-fidelity data with analytical tools, replacing error-prone manual processes with precision-driven assessments.

*
Data-Driven Accuracy and Insights: LRA Plus delivers calculated understanding of specific facility risks, moving beyond assumptions to objective data. The system integrates extensive lightning strike data, including flash and strike-point density metrics (detailed measurements of lightning activity patterns), to provide accurate and current assessments.

*
Optimized Protection Strategies: AI analyzes lightning data and risk factors to offer tailored recommendations for protection strategies and identify high-risk areas. This ensures effective resource allocation, avoiding costs associated with both under-protection and over-spending. The platform facilitates scenario testing, such as evaluating Surge Protective Device (SPD) upgrades, optimizing protection design and strategy.

*
Automated Compliance: LRA Plus automates precise calculations required by international and regional standards including IEC 62305 and NFPA 780-2023 Annex L, providing confidence in compliance and strengthening insurer relationships.

*
Comprehensive Reporting and Support: The platform generates detailed, professional reports in over 57 languages. An AI-Powered Assistant simplifies assessment and compliance processes, offering instant guidance on standards and calculation explanations.

LRA Plus serves diverse markets including the lightning protection industry, electrical and consulting engineers, and Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) firms. The platform also provides value for renewable energy developers, transportation authorities, and government agencies seeking to protect valuable assets and ensure operational continuity.

The investment in AI-assisted lightning risk assessment offers a compelling return on investment (ROI), translating into saved time and resources, improved accuracy, optimized protection strategies, enhanced operational resilience, and direct mitigation of financial losses. Preventing even one instance of downtime can easily justify the investment. This approach aligns with the growing trend in ClimateTech where AI is seen as a critical enabler for climate adaptation and resilience, driving breakthroughs in managing climate impacts through data analysis and optimization.

By embracing advanced tools like LRA Plus, organizations can move confidently beyond guesswork, providing precise, reliable, and standards-compliant solutions to build a more resilient future in the face of a dynamic and growing threat.
