What is Scanifly?

Almost all professionals in the solar industry, specifically 98%, conduct technical evaluations at the site before construction begins, with over half completing this step prior to closing a sale. However, despite their diligence, solar companies frequently spend countless hours using ladders and taking manual measurements on rooftops, which can delay project timelines, reduce accuracy, and increase safety risks. By utilizing drone technology combined with sophisticated 3D modeling, Scanifly’s solar design software can dramatically decrease the need for rooftop inspections, potentially slashing onsite time by up to 90%, while also improving design accuracy to avoid expensive redesigns, change orders, or installation delays. Conventional tools such as ladders, tape measures, and handwritten notes may lead to inaccuracies and mistakes due to the reliance on approximations. In contrast, the use of drones and 3D modeling technology streamlines the entire process, enhancing both efficiency and safety while increasing design precision. By capturing images with your drone in JPEG format, you can digitize multiple elements of the project. Additionally, this cutting-edge technology automatically creates scaled 3D models of the intended sites, offering a thorough perspective for solar project planning. This advancement not only simplifies the workflow for solar companies but also allows for more informed decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.

What is PV Designer?

PV Designer software stands out as an ideal solution for residential and smaller commercial energy systems, enabling users to easily outline roofs, configure set-back and keep-out zones, and incorporate SunEye shading data accurately on rooftops. Its intuitive features allow for simple dragging and dropping of modules, string sizing, inverter capacity checks, and AC energy output calculations, greatly enhancing the design workflow. The application comes with extensive global databases that include information on modules, inverters, and historical weather trends, positioning it as a flexible resource. Users can test different design scenarios and compare their AC kW-hr outputs side by side, facilitating the identification of the most effective design. While particularly designed for systems around 15 kW, it is also capable of handling larger projects up to 100 kW. The software's intuitive interface makes it accessible for beginners in solar design, while still offering the detailed analysis typically found in more advanced engineering applications. This fusion of ease of use and powerful capabilities establishes PV Designer as a remarkable asset in the field of solar design, appealing to both novices and experienced professionals alike. Furthermore, the ability to simulate real-world conditions enhances the decision-making process, making it an invaluable tool for optimizing solar energy systems.
