Virto.CAD is a cutting-edge solar PV design add-on for AutoCAD and BricsCAD. The software enables design of utility scale and commercial Solar PV systems on 3D terrains and rooftops shadow-free with highest irradiance at any geographical location.

• Generate automated module layouts
• String planning and cable calculations
• Irradiation simulation (shadows)
• PVsyst export for yield simulations
• Mounting system ballast visualization and bill of materials

Description

Virto.CAD is a leading engineering software more PV solar power plants and includes these feature sets: 1. Easy 3D modellling of roofs (no 3D knowledge required) 2. Generate automated layouts on a 3D terrain mesh for ground mount systems with predefined racks. 3. Generate automated layouts on 3D models even if they were not created by Virtuosolar 4. Simulate the irradiation of the sun by loading a weather file and projecting a heatmap on the roof surface or the PV modules. 5. Export your layout to PVsyst for yield simulations 6. System configuration to setup your plan with transformers, LV cabinets, Inverters and Combiner Boxes. 7. String Mapping with colorization feature to improve reading of the plans on site. 8. Cable calculations with lengths, cable section and voltage drop of each cable. 9. Mounting system bill of materials, ballast calculations and visualization through API calls to manufacturers such as Avasco, Esdec, Van der Valk, SolarStell and Sunbeam Benefits of using Virtuosolar: - Efficient and fast (>75% time saving) - Error detection (no duplicate modules or incorrect strings) - Large projects (>10000 modules) - Combined 2D construction and 3D sales drawings - Shadow simulations based on yearly kWh irradiance
