Solar and energy production modeling
Estimate solar generation potential and compare against current electricity costs for any site. Give clients a credible payback analysis grounded in real location data instead of generic calculators.
Estimate annual solar production for a flat rooftop system in Las Vegas, NV and compare with the local commercial electricity rate.
Estimated annual production: 1,847 kWh per kW installed. At $0.094/kWh commercial rate, a 100 kW system saves approximately $17,361/year. Simple payback period: 6.2 years before incentives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can AI help me calculate energy savings for specific equipment upgrades?
AI tools are best for gathering inputs — current utility rates, solar production estimates, incentive amounts — rather than performing engineering-grade simulation. Use AI to pull live rate data and compile incentive research, then apply your engineering calculations on top of that grounded data.
How accurate is the energy data for solar production estimates?
The Energy Data tool uses location-based irradiance data to estimate solar production potential. Estimates are suitable for preliminary feasibility analysis and client proposals. Detailed system design should still use NREL PVWatts or similar engineering-grade tools.
Can I use these tools to research incentives in any US state?
Deep Research can pull information on utility rebates, state programs, and federal incentives for any US location. Since programs change frequently, always verify current amounts and deadlines directly with the administering agency before presenting to clients.
Will lead finder help me find building owners versus tenants?
Lead Finder searches professional databases by role, company, and location. You can filter for titles like Facilities Manager, Director of Real Estate, or Building Owner to target decision-makers with authority over capital improvements rather than tenants.
How can I use AI to speed up writing energy audit reports?
The Content Repurposer works best when you provide structured field notes, equipment inventories, and your savings calculations as input. It can draft executive summaries, recommendation narratives, and client-facing sections in minutes — you then review and add your professional engineering sign-off.
