In an industry where cost is so paramount, ensuring that your PV project’s design is entirely optimized is of utmost importance. Achieving this, however, is not always a simple process, as each project’s site, needs, and materials can vary drastically.

Enter pvDesign, RatedPower’s cloud-based project design software, which can optimize the end-to-end engineering process, from producing the necessary documentation for the interconnection request to develop a complete proforma, to creating a financial model with its CAPEX tool.

Intended to be used every step from conception to implementation, the software is aimed to accelerate overall design time, saving developers money and delivering projects on an expedited schedule.

In this pv magazine Webinar, we will learn how pvDesign has the potential to improve the end-to-end engineering process, solving common problems that developers face. We will also examine real-life case studies where specific issues and limitations have been met to deliver optimal projects by pvDesign.

Presenters Gabriel Cañadas, Business Developer, and Soukayna Jermouni, Project Engineer, from Rated Power will discuss the details of the software and how to best employ it to improve processes.

Gabriel and Soukayna will be joined by their client Blue Ridge Energy’s Chief Engineer Megan Parsons. Megan will go into all the stages of design, explaining her experience and supplementing the demonstration with a case study of a real-life project optimally developed with pvDesign.
