AutoCAD-Native Solar Design

Utility-Scale Solar Design in Minutes, Not Weeks

Terrain-aware layout, grading optimization, cable routing, and construction-ready outputs. From topo to pile coordinates in a single AutoCAD workflow.

  • Slope analysis and soil hardness mapping on your actual topo surface
  • Cut/fill optimization with three grading approaches compared automatically
  • DC cable routing with voltage drop per string and trench corridor paths
  • Pile coordinates, grading sheets, PVsyst export. Construction-ready.

Automated Grading on Real Terrain

On one project, full terrain smoothing cost $1.06M in earthwork. Pile-adaptive grading: $335K. Same panels, same capacity.

PVX.AI reads your topo surface and generates optimized cut/fill volumes. Three grading approaches compared automatically.

Speed

One Tool. One File. One Workflow.

Traditional workflows require exporting between 3-4 tools to get from terrain to layout to construction drawings.

Terrain, layout, grading, cable routing, PVsyst export. Everything inside AutoCAD. Full site analysis in under 10 minutes.

Design That Matches the Site

Design teams hand off PDFs. Construction teams discover the site doesn't match. Change orders add up.

PVX.AI exports exact pile coordinates, cut/fill sheets, and drainage plans. Construction-ready from day one.

Same Site. Three Approaches. $727K Difference.

Real data from a utility-scale solar project on rocky terrain where 44% of the ground was solid rock.

Grading Approach Earthwork Volume Cost
Full terrain smoothing 118,225 m³ $1,062,481
Pile-adaptive grading 48,109 m³ $438,046
Table splitting + pile-adaptive 34,819 m³ $335,376

Source: CS#1 engineering analysis. All three approaches produce the same panel capacity.

DC Cabling Optimization
$430K saved
On the same 130 MWp plant, switching from Line String to Leapfrog cabling topology saved $430K in DC cable costs. PVX.AI calculates real cable routes with voltage drop per string, not bird's-eye estimates.
