Watch a webinar featuring PVFARM members as they discuss key Capital Considerations When Designing Solar Layouts. Gain insights and practical tips to enhance your project planning and decision-making.

Use cases

How the energy production can change based on terrain context

When designing solar farms, it's crucial to consider both terrain and technology. Optimizing for terrain could result in higher returns than relying solely on advanced technology.

New Features

Pile Position Plan

We are excited to introduce the Pile Position Plan feature, designed to streamline and enhance the evaluation of piles across your layout.

  • Automate the evaluation and organization of pile data, reducing manual effort and speeding up the analysis process.

  • Enjoy more accurate and consistent results with binning and data processing.

  • Utilize colorful maps and 3D views to evaluate the distribution of steel.

  • Export data in CSV and DXF file formats

Improvements

AutoCAD/Civil3D Plugin

The Plugin is updated to the 7.2.0 version. It supports export for surfaces as PVFM files and SHD files for PVSyst. Find more details about this update HERE.

Existing Roads Update

The updated Road Solver now includes advanced algorithms to better handle and integrate existing roads into new layouts, ensuring that designs are both feasible and optimized for real-world implementation.

Cost Charts

Weโ€™ve revamped our cost charts to provide a more vibrant and insightful visualization experience. These colorful charts will help you easily identify and analyze subtotal groups, whether using smart defaults based on the Wood Mackenzie reports or your custom inputs.

And many more other updates and improvements ๐Ÿš€
