Import custom, measured 15-minute interval consumption data (.csv or .txt formats).
The software tracks the sun's path across 365 days using minute-step intervals. This calculates the precise percentage of annual shading for every individual square centimeter of the photovoltaic array. This exact data helps designers bypass heavy shade zones and install module-level power electronics (MLPE) like microinverters or DC optimizers where necessary. 2.

One of the hallmark enhancements in the 2019 release was the detailed modeling of electric vehicle charging within photovoltaic systems. Recognizing the growing synergy between solar generation and EV adoption, Valentin Software implemented a comprehensive EV consumption module. Users can define multiple vehicle groups, each with customizable parameters including vehicle type, quantity, expected annual mileage, and charging schedules differentiated across all seven days of the week.

Configure the inverter layout. The software includes an automated configuration assistant that suggests optimal string lengths, array pairings, and MPPT allocations based on voltage and current tolerances.
