01
Select a location
Choose a project location so the model can apply site-specific solar and weather assumptions.
Simulation
Estimate solar output and water-side benefits.
Use the SOLAR WAVES simulator to explore indicative annual power generation, water savings from shading, and rainwater collection for early-stage site comparison. Configure location, panel layout, deployment type, orientation, and water-side assumptions before moving into detailed engineering review.
01 · The model
Power output and water-savings simulation.
Configure the site and array assumptions, then review indicative performance metrics inside the live simulator.
02 · How it works
Start with the site.
02
Configure the array
Select SOLAR WAVES or a comparison configuration, then set panel type, orientation, elevation, surface, and array copies.
03
Compare deployment types
Switch between ground and water-side scenarios to see how context changes output, shading, and water savings.
04
Results
Compare annual generation, estimated water saved by shading, and rainwater collected.
05
Apply to your project
Use the results to support early site-fit discussions before final engineering review.
03 · Model logic
How the simulation is structured.
The model combines site location, solar geometry, panel configuration, irradiance assumptions, shading behaviour, and water-side inputs to support early project comparison.
Weather & irradiance
Location-specific inputs estimate solar behaviour across the selected site.
Geometry & deployment
SOLAR WAVES and comparison configurations can be adjusted by orientation, elevation, surface, and repeated layouts.
Shading & water-side assumptions
The model estimates shading, sky exposure, and evaporation-related effects for water-side deployments.
Engineering boundary
The simulator supports early-stage planning and comparison. Final project design still requires site-specific engineering review.
