Why should you use AutoCAD for solar projects?

As a software, it is extremely feature-loaded and is an in-demand skill by solar companies around the globe. AutoCAD helps solar designers create comprehensive project designs of ground-mounted, rooftop, carport and sloped roof solar projects. It also provides wire sizing, stringing, and single line diagram generation.

Does greenlancer offer solar drafting services?

GreenLancer is one such service that provides engineering and design support. Solar installers and developers can access solar plan set expertise and support without needing in-house design and engineering teams, allowing for cost-effective solutions and quick turnaround times for solar drafting services.

How much space does a photovoltaic system need?

Photovoltaic modules installed on the ground or on a flat surface occupy an area of approximately 20 m2/kWp, avoiding shading between the rows of modules. The design of a photovoltaic system, from the public operator’s network to the photovoltaic modules, requires careful planning and compliance with local regulations.

What do you need to know about solar panels & inverters?

Specification Sheets: Technical data sheets for solar panels, inverters, and other major components to verify their performance and safety certifications. Equipment Locations: A map or layout of where all equipment will be installed on the property, such as the location of inverters, junction boxes, and disconnects.
