RatedPower for Consulting

Turn around more client studies, on one subscription
4.5+200 reviews in G2

Take a client's site from feasibility to a pre-construction-ready design in one pass: layout, electrical, yield, CAPEX and 400+ documents. One team-wide subscription covers your whole team, so you deliver more studies without stitching results across tools you can't justify twice.

Software for solar engineering firms

The consulting squeeze

Client work is billable by the hour and urgent by default. The more studies your team can turn around well, the more the business grows. But the usual setup fights you: a layout in one tool, a yield in another, CAPEX in a spreadsheet, data re-keyed at every step, and two overlapping licenses you struggle to justify at renewal.

Here’s how we can help you

Icon

Every client study, feasibility to design, in one pass

Bring in a client's site and produce the layout, electrical design, yield and 400+ editable documents in a single pass. Your yield reconciles with PVsyst and your deepest civil detail goes to CAD, so you stop exporting and re-importing across five tools and losing data on the way.

Icon

One team-wide subscription, not a stack you can't justify twice

RatedPower covers unlimited users and projects for one per-company fee, so the whole team works from one tool. Weighing about thousands of dollars across separate licenses, Jindal Renewables decided "instead of all this we'll go with only this one package."

Results you can defend to a technical client

Compare configurations and get a data-backed, 3D-simulated energy yield and editable outputs for each, so the numbers you hand a technical reviewer hold up to scrutiny.

Quick solar site analysis

Prospect sites efficiently

Easily clone your PV plant designs and add, remove, or edit parcels within the project. Change any equipment—such as modules, inverters, or racking systems. Analyse prices, LCOE, energy production, and more. Prepare the project documentation ready for later stages.

Prospect sites efficiently

Perform cut-and-fill cost-benefit analyses

Use Google Earth or your own topography data within your design. Define installation limits for your racking so they’re excluded from your layout and apply earthworks where necessary. Use the BoQ to determine the total cut-and-fill volume and make confident data-driven decisions.

Find the best electrical configuration

Iterate the electrical configuration of your project. Group the string in pitch or axial direction. Pick the design of your solar field— with either a string box or a DC bus system. Define the cable standard and use a range of parameters for each cable type. Compare each electrical setup and create the project documentation.

SolarFarm Feasibility: Building a feasibility business on rapid design iteration with RatedPower

«Using traditional methods, I often found that it would take a lot of time, and a simple change could ripple and really take time and resources away. I built my business on the ability to give people the chance to look at a lot of different versions very quickly and really find the best solution for that site.»

Res Group: Enhancing project delivery by connecting RatedPower with AutoCAD and PVsyst©

«When manually doing a preliminary site layout in AutoCAD, it can take considerable time and resources. Depending on the size of the site, it can easily take one or two days just for one single scenario. RatedPower’s ability to export layouts as DWG files ensures smooth integration into AutoCAD, helping reduce this workload and speed up design iterations.»

Photon: Bringing solar design in-house

«RatedPower is truly a value creator. It allows us to develop projects more efficiently while adding significant value to each opportunity. In Japan, tools like this are still not widely adopted, and much of the solar project development process remains manual.»

Yuko IshiharaManaging Partner & Co-founder at PHOTON CAPITAL LLC

Harnessing RatedPower 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.»

All success stories

We've got you covered

Most firms that adopt RatedPower run it upstream of AutoCAD, not instead of it: RatedPower does the fast early-stage study (screening, layout, yield, CAPEX, documents), then hands the design to the CAD tool for the deepest civil and cabling detail. Weighing several separate licenses, one consultancy told us they'd go with "only this one package," because unlimited users on one platform replaced a stack they couldn't justify twice. If your team lives mostly in detailed design, RatedPower speeds the step before it.

Yes. RatedPower runs the full flow, from siting to a feasibility study, then lets you fine-tune the parametric design in the Layout Editor and calculate the 3D energy yield. You can export the layout at any point in that process, or import a .dwg you've edited in your CAD tool, so existing designs fit into the workflow instead of starting from scratch. If your pipeline is mostly already-detailed projects, that's worth testing on a real one first.

You can iterate layouts, electrical configurations and cabling and compare scenarios, each with a data-backed 3D yield, so the study holds up to a technical reviewer. For client work that needs deeper manual civil and cabling control, you hand off to CAD for that last layer. Importing this last layout for 3D yield back in RatedPower is also possible.
