Description

PVGround is a comprehensive solar design tool available as plugins for AutoCAD and ZWCAD, catering to both ground-mounted (PVGround) and rooftop (PVRoof) photovoltaic projects. This platform efficiently interprets terrain from drawings to strategically position solar panels, determines the megawatt capacity based on varying row spacings, and conducts shading analysis that accounts for obstacles like trees and fences. Additionally, it facilitates the planning of DC, AC, and HV cable routes in three dimensions, organizes pile lengths in correlation with tonnage, computes earthwork requirements for cutting and filling, and validates designs through cross-sectional evaluations. Meanwhile, PVRoof focuses on roof geometry by modeling slope and orientation, allowing for both automatic and manual panel placement while performing shading assessments. Users can export their designs to formats such as PVsyst, Excel, PDF, and DXF. Furthermore, the WebView feature enables users to share their completed designs via a token, allowing reviewers to access the 3D models of terrain, modules, piles, and structures, alongside live shading and read-only performance metrics (annual production, specific yield, and performance ratio) from any browser on devices like phones, tablets, or laptops without requiring AutoCAD or a license, ensuring that your DWG files remain secure. Prospective users can take advantage of a 14-day complimentary trial to explore the platform's capabilities.

Description

PVSketch is a user-friendly web application that simplifies the process of developing solar projects. Its approachable interface allows sales professionals to utilize a precise layout tool without needing extensive training. This innovative tool enhances the visualization of solar energy solutions while providing reliable energy modeling capabilities. As a component of the PVComplete platform, PVSketch enables seamless collaboration among solar developers, installers, and engineers, promoting both efficiency and precision in their work. Sales professionals can swiftly initiate a project online with PVSketch, subsequently transferring it to PVCAD, an AutoCAD plugin, for in-depth engineering plans. By making solar design straightforward, PVSketch allows users to create comprehensive solar projects with just five clicks. The intuitive drawing tools ensure that accurate solar designs are within reach for anyone. With just a single click, users can produce a complete layout, but for those who wish to take it further, the platform offers the ability to refine their designs into more complex structures, enhancing the overall project quality. Ultimately, PVSketch not only streamlines the initial phases of solar project development but also empowers users to create sophisticated and tailored solutions.
