New features make PV system design and planning even easier

“Fronius Solar.creator was developed to support our customers in the planning, layout, and design of photovoltaic systems,” explains Adrian Noronho, Director of the Business Unit Solar Energy at Fronius USA. “We recommend using the reports for consultations or during sales discussions with the end customer. This makes it easy to illustrate the different aspects of cost effectiveness, energy flows, and components. The predefined load profiles in the tool help you to select the right consumer profile and provide a detailed estimation of the expected consumption.”

More than just a planning tool

Many of the Solar.creator functions do more than just support the planning of PV systems. From site selection to the finished report, the free tool covers every aspect of online configuration. The efficient connection to various databases (module databases, weather database, integration of Google Maps) generates the best possible result. “By connecting to a weather database, the user receives the insolation data for the selected location,” explains John Toma, Product Solutions at Fronius USA.

A tool that provides maximum support for planners and sales staff

The fact that users simply log in and out with their existing Solar.web account is particularly practical. In addition, an unlimited number of projects can be planned all under the same user account, the results can be prepared individually and clearly, which helps to support the final sale. The clear display provides a good overview and the high level of user-friendliness guides users step by step through the planning process. “The free Solar.creator is flexible, user-friendly, and allows for the fully comprehensive design and simulation of PV systems with electrical loads. A tool that provides maximum support for both planners and sellers,” concludes John Toma.
