About

PV Designer software is ideal for residential and small commercial systems. It enables you to quickly and easily: draw a roof outline, specify set-backs and keep-out regions, incorporate SunEye shade measurements at specific locations on the roof, drag-and-drop modules, size strings, check inverter limits, and calculate the AC energy production for your system. It includes extensive worldwide databases of modules, inverters, and historical weather. You can easily try different design scenarios and compare their AC kW-hr outputs side-by-side to identify the best design. PV Designer is the design tool of choice for designing systems of around 15 kW or less, however larger systems up to 100kW can also be designed in PV Designer. The software is easy to learn and easy to use, yet enables detailed analysis traditionally only available in complicated engineering tools.

About

Solispec is a browser-based solar design and proposal tool for installers, PV designers, homeowners, distributors and mounting manufacturers. It combines site planning, structural checks and customer proposals. Users can model ground-mounted arrays and flat or pitched roofs, assess mounting structures for snow and wind loads, configure PV strings across MPPT inputs, and generate drawings, cutting lists and bills of materials. The software estimates PV generation and payback, shows tree and building shade in 3D, and creates branded proposals with multiple options, PDF export and a shareable acceptance link. Users can select manufacturer equipment or add their own products and prices. Homeowners can prepare preliminary plans, while professionals can manage projects and clients; Business adds team roles and engineer-review workflows. Structural outputs should be reviewed by a qualified professional before installation.
