Lightning Fast Automated Layouts

Quickly complete site capacity layouts for utility-scale projects of any size using click-and-drag control and place tracker blocks at any angle within the project site.

  • Auto placement of partial tracker rows
  • Place access roads & equipment pads
  • Finish in 5 mins or less

Advanced topography analysis

Perform more accurate site assessments in less time by analyzing all piers, verifying that trackers can be deployed to specification.

  • Import USGS, Google Earth, custom data
  • Avoid false positives from limited pier data
  • Improve cost control
  • Access Free Trial

    Side-by-side comparisons

    Eliminate guesswork and see how modifying structural and electrical components affect system design and performance estimates.

    • Compare fixed tilt & single-axis trackers
    • Thin-film vs crystalline silicon modules
    • GCR, Output capacity & production values

    Pier & Top-of-Pile plans

    Generate automatic pier plans with pier locations, corresponding surface altitude, and top-of-pile reports for leading tracker systems, including Nextracker and Array Technologies.

  • Calculate pier data for trackers or fixed-tilt tables
  • Specify pier location, surface altitude, reveals, top of pile
  • Export CSV files for data portability
  • Export to PVSyst

    Easily export your design to PVSyst for bankable energy yield modelling

    • Automatically generate a PVSyst shade scene (.SHD) file
    • Also generates a project file (.PRJ) and meteo file (.MET)
    • Open the files in PVSyst to model the energy yield including topography effects
