Solar Intelligence Platform

The predictive
intelligence engine
for solar energy.

Solar Intelligence transforms the raw complexity of a solar asset — its location, its load, its system configuration, its financial structure — into a single, precise, actionable picture of what that asset will actually do.

What it is

Not a tool.
An intelligence engine.

Solar Intelligence was built from the ground up to answer the questions that matter most in solar energy — and to answer them with precision, not approximation.

Where conventional tools give you an estimate, Solar Intelligence gives you a model. Where others give you a number, we give you a range, a sensitivity, and a confidence level. Where a spreadsheet gives you a static output, Solar Intelligence gives you a live decision framework you can interrogate from every angle.

It is used by solar installers to win better proposals, by corporate energy managers to justify capital expenditure, by financial analysts to model investment returns, and by utility planners to manage generation portfolios at scale.

Intelligence Modules

Every dimension of
solar performance.

Solar Intelligence is structured as a set of deeply integrated intelligence modules — each answering a specific category of question, all operating from the same underlying data model.

Module 01

Yield Forecasting

Hourly-resolution solar production modelling using real irradiance datasets, panel specifications, orientation and shading inputs, and inverter efficiency curves. This is not a solar estimate — it is a production forecast with the granularity to model every hour of every day across a full performance year.

Output includes monthly generation profiles, peak and base yield benchmarks, seasonal performance variance, and year-on-year degradation projections.

  • Real irradiance data inputs — not generic solar tables
  • Panel-level specification modelling including temperature coefficients
  • Shading, soiling, and loss factor modelling
  • Inverter clipping and efficiency curve integration
  • Multi-year generation forecasts with degradation curves
What this answers
For Installers
"How much will this system actually produce for my client — and can I defend that number?"
For Energy Managers
"What is the realistic annual generation for a proposed rooftop system at this site?"
For Finance Teams
"What are the upside and downside production scenarios we should build into our financial model?"
Module 02

Storage Intelligence

Battery sizing and dispatch optimisation modelled against real load profiles. Solar Intelligence calculates the precise storage capacity required to hit a target self-consumption rate — and models how the battery will actually dispatch across a typical day, week, and season.

This module eliminates the guesswork from battery sizing — replacing rules of thumb with a data-driven optimisation that accounts for load shape, grid tariff structure, and time-of-use economics.

  • Load profile analysis — consumption pattern disaggregation
  • Battery dispatch simulation across 8,760 annual hours
  • Self-consumption and grid-independence rate modelling
  • Optimal capacity sizing for target self-sufficiency levels
  • Time-of-use arbitrage value quantification
What this answers
For Installers
"What battery size actually makes sense for this client's load profile — not just their panel size?"
For Energy Managers
"At what storage capacity do we achieve 80% grid independence — and what does that cost versus save?"
For Utility Planners
"What is the aggregate storage dispatch profile across our portfolio during peak demand events?"
Module 03

Financial Modelling

Full financial intelligence on any solar asset — from simple payback to discounted cash flow analysis, IRR, and NPV. Solar Intelligence models the complete financial picture: capital outlay, energy savings, grid export revenue, tariff escalation, degradation, and maintenance — year by year across the full asset life.

Tariff sensitivity analysis and scenario modelling allow finance teams to stress-test assumptions and understand return ranges rather than relying on a single-point projection.

  • Simple payback, discounted payback, IRR, and NPV modelling
  • Tariff escalation sensitivity and scenario analysis
  • Year-by-year cash flow projections over full asset life
  • Grid export revenue and net billing value modelling
  • Capital structure modelling — cash purchase vs. financing vs. PPA
What this answers
For Finance Teams
"What is the IRR on this solar investment under conservative, base, and optimistic tariff scenarios?"
For Installers
"How do I present a compelling financial case that a client's CFO will approve?"
For Investors
"What are the risk-adjusted returns on this solar portfolio under different electricity price paths?"
Module 04

Portfolio Intelligence

For organisations managing multiple solar assets, Solar Intelligence scales to portfolio-level analysis — aggregating performance data, flagging underperformers, and providing consolidated financial intelligence across all sites simultaneously.

Automated intelligence reports are generated on a scheduled basis and delivered directly to stakeholders — giving asset managers, investors, and operations teams the situational awareness they need without manual effort.

  • Multi-site yield aggregation and performance benchmarking
  • Underperformance detection against modelled production baselines
  • Consolidated financial performance tracking across the portfolio
  • Automated scheduled intelligence reports for asset managers
  • White-label output options for enterprise and investor reporting
Enterprise Enquiry
What this answers
For Asset Managers
"Which of our 30 sites are underperforming against their modelled baseline — and by how much?"
For Investors
"What is the consolidated yield and revenue performance of our solar portfolio this quarter?"
For Operations
"Where should we prioritise maintenance intervention to recover the most generation value?"
