SMART FLOW FOR ENERGY
Utility-scale solar design at lightning speed
Increase your PV plant profits by over 20% with accurate engineering from site identification to engineering of your project. Futureproof your solar company today.
Here’s how we can help you
80% of the PV projects that make it into the queue for planning never make it to commercial operations. Ensuring fast and reliable results is the only way to mitigate risks and achieve success in today’s fiercely competitive solar market.
Shorten design time
Streamline the design and planning of PV plants to reduce the number of hours engineering teams spend by 85%.
Reduce LCOE of your projects
Make confident and insight-driven decisions. Increase your PV asset profitability by 20% by reducing LCOE from site planning to construction.
Optimize your layout
Iterate your layout configuration to find the best option in seconds and reduce human errors. Get bankable results your off-taker can trust.
Unlocking ROI with solar software
We teamed up with Enverus to run a comprehensive analysis of where utility-scale developers, IPPs, and EPCs might be losing ROI during the PV design and engineering stage.
The best-in-class solar players choose to work with us
Streamlining BayWa r.e’s pre-engineering workload
«We needed software that was easy to handle, fast, and detailed. Now, with pvDesign, our developers can design in half an hour. Using AutoCAD or other tools would take one or two days.»
Optimizing PV projects and overcome the limitations of legacy software
«We have received a highly professional response when we needed support or training from RatedPower's team. pvDesign helps us optimize our projects and provides us with a significant advantage over our competitors.»
RatedPower speed helps us boost our competitive advantage
«Now we can turn around design documents within hours and minutes to stakeholders, landowners, partners or engineers, to get through our regulatory process. This has allowed us to move projects forward faster.»
Aligning stakeholders from development to procurement
«The solar industry is becoming more volatile and complex. In today’s world, developers, contractors, and buyers need flexible, scalable and configurable cost estimation tools linked to design for running different scenarios.»
A three-in-one software that saves PNE time and resources
«It's easy to use, even for non-technical users. Now, anyone in our offices can efficiently create their own designs, and our German engineers can manipulate anything in our projects remotely since pvDesign is cloud-based.»
Harnessing pvDesign to carry out invaluable PV equipment analysis
«RatedPower provides us with simplicity and flexibility in our solar projects while requiring fewer resources. Other software options typically demand more resources on our end to complete these calculations.»
Doubling PV project development bandwidth with software
«Thanks to the new developments created by RatedPower that adapt to our needs, we could double our capacity. The time we used to spend on designing and reviewing designs is now focused on doing more projects.»
Spearheading the transition to renewables
«We used to use a mix of tools like AutoCAD, spreadsheets and PVsyst. Now with RatedPower, our team can be innovative and explore more possibilities without wasting time, as each design only takes minutes to run.»
Driving efficiency and optimizing resources for more than 50 projects
«RatedPower offers highly personalized customer support. The team has been efficient in solving our doubts and helping us learn how to make the most out of the tool based on our unique needs.»
