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
PVcase Ground Mount is an AutoCAD-based software that allows you to design solar power plants at utility scale. It allows solar engineers to reduce project costs and increase reliability while improving solar plant performance. Realistic, terrain-based PV layouts can reduce project uncertainty and eliminate design errors. Great solar designs can be ruined by poor CAPEX. Get a clear breakdown of the project costs early. Optimize your design and assess potential near-shading issues. Streamline your electrical design by streamlining string mapping and device placement. You can easily download and share cable runs, piling lengths and other cost estimates with your team. PVsyst allows you to export your PV design in a custom format.
