Our Solar Design Services
Whether you are seeking to develop your first solar project or energy storage, or to expand an existing portfolio, we provide complete Solar PV Design services based on our knowledge and experience across all areas of solar PV energy development, including complete design and integration of Battery Storage solutions and EV charger infrastructure.
Our design services cover all areas of Solar PV project development, including complete design simulation based on customer load profile, technical reports, BOM (Bill of Materials) with costing, mounting design, grid regulatory issues and project management, ensuring your project’s success delivery within time. Our diverse professional staff, including Professional Engineers, Certified Energy Managers, LEED-Accredited Professionals, and our experience with top Solar PV manufacturers, allows us to successfully deliver complete solar PV design services for our customers. We employ latest software for our design services such as PVsol, SketchUp and PVSyst for 3D designing and PV energy yield simulation. We also perform load flow analysis on Etap and SLD (Single Line Diagram) with modules Placement on AUTOCAD.
G99 Application
The G99 application is essential for integrating larger solar systems with a generation capacity exceeding 16 amps per phase (3.68 kW) into the main electrical utility grid. This application ensures that the system adheres to G99 standards for seamless integration. Our team provides comprehensive support throughout the G99 application process, which includes a thorough review of site plans, connection designs, and a signed letter of authority. We manage the entire process efficiently, handling all related aspects, including any associated costs based on system size, and navigating the approval timeframe, which can range from 10 to 45 working days.
G98 Application
The G98 application is essential for registering small-scale embedded generation systems, such as solar PV installations, with the local Distribution Network Operator (DNO). This application is specifically for microgeneration systems with a capacity of up to 16 amps per phase (3.68 kW per phase). Our team expertly navigates the G98 application process, ensuring full compliance with Engineering Recommendation G98 standards. We manage the preparation of all required documentation, including details on system type, capacity, inverter specifications, and installer information. We oversee the approval process, which typically spans up to 8 weeks, and ensure prompt notification to the DNO within 28 days of commissioning, guaranteeing a smooth and efficient integration of your system.
DNO Application
A DNO application is a crucial step for integrating renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, into the local distribution network. This process requires submitting comprehensive details about your solar system for evaluation by the Distribution Network Operator (DNO). Our team expertly handles the entire DNO application process, meticulously preparing and submitting all required information to ensure your system complies with local network standards. For smaller installations, we utilise the G83 form, while larger systems necessitate the G99 form. We ensure that the local network can safely accommodate the additional power generation, maintaining safety and efficiency throughout the process.
PVSOL Design
PV SOL Design is integral to achieving optimal efficiency and performance in your solar system. It involves the comprehensive planning and optimization of your solar setup, including detailed technical specifications, strategic system layout, and performance simulations. Our approach involves precise design services where we meticulously plan system layouts, panel placements, and inverter configurations. By using advanced simulation software, we analyse and predict your system’s performance outcomes to ensure maximum energy capture and system longevity. This commitment to precision and thorough analysis guarantees that every aspect of your solar system is optimised for peak efficiency and reliability.
