PVGround
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.

Solargis
An accurate assessment of solar energy potential is essential during the pre-feasibility stage of a project. In addition to needing reliable results, it is also important for the pre-feasibility analysis to be conducted efficiently. Tools like Solargis's iMaps and pvPlanner enable quick access to dependable solar yield estimates. The latest Prospect tool enhances the precision of these estimates and facilitates smoother collaboration during the solar project development process. Among the various solar databases, Solargis data is recognized for its superior accuracy and reliability, as supported by multiple independent studies. This data has been validated across more than 1000 locations worldwide, with validation statistics for over 180 non-confidential sites available on the validation map. While popular simulation software such as PVsyst offers sophisticated functionalities for system design and energy modeling, it is important to note that the default weather data provided in these tools may lack reliability. Therefore, utilizing validated solar data is key to optimizing project outcomes.
