PVFARM is a design automation platform for the preliminary design stage of utility-scale solar projects. We help design teams move faster on feasibility studies, RFP responses and site optimisation by automating complex design tasks such as layout generation, grading, electrical planning and equipment selection, while keeping engineers fully in control. Unlike traditional layout tools, PVFARM is built to support better decision-making. Teams can easily explore how terrain, site constraints or equipment choices affect project feasibility and cost, and compare different strategies before progressing to detailed design. The platform is intuitive, web-based and combines civil, electrical and energy workflows in one place. This helps teams work more collaboratively and avoid costly rework.
