Solar site layout evaluation and selection

PVFARM, developer of an AI-enabled solar design platform, announced that it has opened the beta test for its tool, tentatively named RE PILOT, which is currently under development. Designed to be an upstream expansion of the PVFARM software, RE PILOT automates the complex process of evaluating the myriad of solar layouts possible based on varied project design parameters to quickly navigate users to the most profitable layout. By automating what has been a manual, spreadsheet-heavy process, RE PILOT allows users to analyze thousands of potential configurations of various factors key to energy production like pitch distance, DC/AC ratio, and racking system, in minutes rather than hours. The tool is designed for both experienced solar developers running advanced optimization and those just starting to explore layout decisions. It supports sophisticated analysis of multiple design variables while also making the process accessible for teams looking to learn how to approach site optimization, replacing manual, spreadsheet-heavy workflows with a fast, intuitive way to evaluate and compare layouts.
