SolarPlus Version 5 - Introduction
SolarPlus Version 5 - Off-Grid
Helioscope Alternative for Solar Design Software
SolarPlus vs Helioscope
Helioscope is a leading design and modelling software for C&I projects globally, however with the recent launch of Version 5, SolarPlus is now positioned to challenge that dominance.
SolarPlus Version 5 represents a complete rebuild of the SolarPlus performance engine, empowering commercial and industrial teams with highly adaptable design solutions coupled with robust energy and financial modeling capabilities. This enables the swift generation of meticulously detailed and customised proposals, adhering to industry best-practice standards.
Compare Helioscope and SolarPlus features
When it comes to designing solar and battery systems for C&I projects, it’s important that the solar system design software you are utilising is powerful, accurate, fast and contains all the features that you require.
Helioscope has been the market leader for commercial solar design for many years, however with the recent launch of SolarPlus Version 5, there is a new competitor to Helioscope on the market that is really shaking things up.
SolarPlus Version 5 introduces a performance boost that has resulted in massive speed improvement for module-level modelling and in the generation of detailed energy and financial reporting.
This means the platform now supports commercial and solar farm system design up to 20 megawatt or more (with capable computers for map processing). Even laptops can be used for C&I solar & storage designs up to 3MW with performance modelling run in around 15 seconds.
When this improved performance is combined with the other features of SolarPlus including a built in CRM, complete battery system design, built-in compliance guidelines, flexible high-res mapping options, 3D visualisations and proposal templates that are 100% customisable, it’s clear that SolarPlus is now the first choice for designers of commercial solar and battery systems.
