SMA Solar Technology Sunny Design Web PV plant design

SMA Solar Technology now offers uncomplicated PV plant configuration via the internet. Plant planners and installers can use the company’s Sunny Design Web software in any current browser without the need to download or install software. The program calculates the most suitable plant configuration using the most relevant information.

Version 3.0 of the design software is available for online use in all current web browsers and mobile devices. Plant design can be accomplished almost anywhere, as long as there is an internet connection. Downloads and updates are no longer required as users always have the latest version of the software.

The user interface has been designed so that the program can be simply and reliably operated via touch. The software also recognises the hardware used and automatically adapts the format of the user interface.

The product contains the company’s latest features, such as the ability to factor in energy storage systems like SMA’s Sunny Backup when creating self-consumption projections. The online tool also permits multistring design of different substrings with an MPP tracker. Registered SMA Sunny Portal users benefit from personalised access and online project management.

Sunny Design Web is available free of charge under www.SunnyDesignWeb.com. The downloadable desktop version is available at www.SMA-Australia.com.au.
