The estimator is the front door. Behind it is one tool for the whole job: win the lead, survey, design, price and issue, then buy, build, commission, hand over and look after the system.
Win the work
Find the customer and the opportunity, and keep in touch until it is signed.
- Public solar estimator for on-grid, hybrid, off-grid and PV-diesel systems
- Enquiries land in the CRM as leads, with consent recorded
- Customers, contacts, deals and a pipeline by stage
- Follow-ups and tasks, with email templates for offers and reminders
Survey the site
Everything the design rests on, recorded once and checked.
- Site on the map, with roofs, ground arrays and carports drawn to size, obstructions included
- Roof detection and measured irradiance layers from Google Solar (Enterprise)
- Read a site from a photo or drawing with AI (Enterprise), or import a KML outline
- Survey assessment of roof, structure, soil, grid and access, turned into design checks
- Weather from PVGIS, NREL NSRDB, NASA POWER or Solcast, or measured monthly data
- Consumption from bills or monthly readings, load shapes, and flat, slab or time-of-use tariffs
Design the system
An engineer's design, worked out hour by hour and checked against the equipment.
- On-grid, hybrid with storage, off-grid, and PV-diesel hybrid with generator dispatch
- Equipment chosen automatically from your catalogue, or picked by hand
- String sizing, MPPT allocation, cable sizing and protection, checked at cold and hot extremes
- Battery sizing for backup, autonomy, self-consumption and peak shaving
- Hour-by-hour simulation over a full year, single-axis trackers and bifacial gain
- Loss waterfall, P50 to P99 yield, and shading and soiling allowances
- Utility-scale plant model: inverter blocks, transformers and the MV network
- Single-line diagram with DXF export, a 3D site model, and designs compared side by side
- Design copilot: ask Claude about a design or for a change (Enterprise)
Equipment catalogue
One list the designs, the prices and the documents all read from.
- Modules, inverters, batteries, mounting, trackers, generators, transformers, switchgear, string boxes and cable
- The Power & Sun range and its distributed brands, with full datasheets
- Import from a spreadsheet or PVsyst PAN and OND files, or read a datasheet with AI (Enterprise)
- Prices kept with where they came from, in any currency, and a check that nothing is quoted unpriced
Quote and issue
From the design to a priced, signed-off offer the customer can open.
- Bill of quantities with the cost build-up and country tax rules
- Payback, IRR, NPV, LCOE and a sensitivity analysis; IPP and PPA models
- Engineering review and approval by a second engineer before anything is issued
- Techno-commercial EPC offer and customer proposal on your letterhead, shared by link
- Project report, slides (PDF and PowerPoint) and a document checklist
- Every figure in the project's own currency
Deliver and review
The project after the order, and the business across all of them.
- Delivery plan, milestones and documents
- Task board, Gantt chart, calendar and timesheets
- Snag list, commissioning checks and handover
- Reports on pipeline, proposals, capacity and the team, in Excel and PDF
