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

Our ambition is to accelerate the shift towards sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources. To achieve this, we aim to offer intuitive photovoltaic (PV) design software tailored for solar installers, engineers, wholesalers, and manufacturers. This innovative approach enables the rapid and efficient development of solar parks and projects. With this vision, we are committed to crafting highly sophisticated and precise software tools. Additionally, we recognize the necessity for our software to be seamlessly integrated into existing workflows. We aspire to foster a collaborative environment for engineers within the photovoltaic sector. Our design software enhances the engineering workflow of solar PV projects by automating monotonous tasks, such as the automatic generation of 3D models. Consequently, users can bypass the tedious process of manually creating these models, thereby saving valuable time. This leads to quicker and more precise drawings for initial designs at construction sites, ultimately improving project efficiency. In the journey of our company, Kim Eyckmans began his career in engineering at a leading solar EPC firm in the BENELUX region, where he gained invaluable insights into the industry. This foundation has driven our mission to innovate and support the renewable energy landscape effectively.
