About

Create a preliminary design by specifying the module and inverter configuration and the layout. Upgrade the design to a permit-ready design by completing a quick 4-step wizard. Define the installation site using aerial imagery or an imported 3D model from EagleView or RoofOrders. With SolarDesignTool, you can create a PV system design and generate a solar permit package in as little as 15 minutes. A permit package includes the following pages: project summary, site plan, single-line diagram, PV safety labels, attachment plan(s), attachment details for supported racking systems, fire safety plan, equipment datasheets, and certifications. After completing a PV system design, generating a solar permit package is as simple as clicking a single button. A PV permit package for a typical residential sloped rooftop using a popular racking system will include all of the pages listed above.

About

Solcast is a cloud-based solar and weather data software built to provide high-resolution, bankable historical, live, and forecast solar irradiance, weather, and photovoltaic (PV) power data for renewable energy applications, delivered through a scalable REST API and developer tools. It tracks real-time satellite cloud cover and blends that with advanced weather models to deliver solar irradiance forecasts from five minutes up to 14 days ahead with high spatial and temporal resolution, and also supplies historical time series from 2007 to seven days ago for performance analysis. Solcast supports multiple PV power forecast models (Rooftop PV, Advanced PV, and Premium PV) that estimate actuals and future output for solar assets of any scale, and its API returns data in JSON or CSV formats suitable for integration into energy software, analytics platforms, or custom workflows. Developers can access this data using native HTTP clients or SDKs (such as Python and C#) with code examples.
