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

Powerlily serves as an integrated solar operating system that consolidates design, proposals, customer relationship management, permitting, field operations, invoicing, and fleet oversight within a unified platform. This system guides customers from initial engagement through design, sales, installation, and ongoing service without the need to recreate the same project across various tools. Teams have the ability to capture and qualify leads, maintain attribution, oversee solar-specific pipelines, and automate follow-ups based on real-time events. The platform's live 3D design feature accommodates roof, ground, carport, and commercial array configurations, incorporating stringing, setbacks, shading considerations, and an extensive 8,760-hour per-panel production simulation. Moreover, its battery analysis capability links usage patterns, tariffs, incentives, and financing options to detailed hour-by-hour storage behavior and overall long-term value. Powerlily also has the capacity to generate editable single-line diagrams, coordinated permit-ready plan sets, customized proposals, e-signatures, invoices, and field schedules from a singular project record, thereby streamlining the entire workflow. This comprehensive approach enhances efficiency and collaboration across all stages of the solar project lifecycle.
