Use Google Maps and Image Underlay

You can select an underlay as the base for your drawing, either from Google Maps or by uploading your own (PNG, JPG, or PDF).

Analysis

Financial Analysis

Understand project returns and long-term value through key financial metrics and cashflow analysis. Compare options and make confident investment decisions.

Energy Yield

Production & Consumption Analysis

Gain accurate insight into system performance using real site and design data. Simulate energy yield, understand production and consumption, and seamlessly export results to PVsyst.

REPORTING

PVsyst & CAD export

Bridge the gap between design and delivery with a connected PV workflow. Collaborate with your team through shared project access, win over stakeholders with brandable reports, and streamline engineering with frictionless .DWG exports and PVsyst-ready data.

Storage

Battery Sizing

Design and size battery systems with confidence

  • Define input parameters and select preferred battery models to generate optimal sizing
  • Place batteries at suitable on-site location based on project layout
Design

3D Modeling and Automated Layout

Create accurate 3D site models and generate optimized PV layouts in one workflow.

  • Model roofs, terrain, and obstacles with precise 3D site representation
  • Automated layout for rooftop, carport, and ground systems
  • Advanced layout control, including shading and thermal breaks
  • Automated building generation from drone imagery and point clouds (via Virto.RISE)
Branding

Customize Branding & Report

You can customize reports with your logo, brand colors, and links, creating professional outputs that match your company identity.

Collaboration

Create Teams and Share Your Projects

You can create teams to collaborate with colleagues, where projects are automatically shared with all members for easy access and continuity, even during absences or handovers. Projects outside a team can still be shared, but this requires manual sharing.

Units

Offered in Metric and Imperial

We support both metric and imperial unit systems.

Scale

Create Designs for Any PV Project Without Sizing Limitation

Virto.MAX supports large-scale PV layouts with over 150,000 panels across multiple buildings or surfaces, while maintaining stable performance.
