Who Needs This Service ( S3 )
Who Should Use Helioscope Shadow Analysis?
Solar Installers & EPC Companies
Eliminate uncertainty to guarantee precise PV system performance forecasting. By offering a thorough grasp of obstruction affects, sun path dynamics, and seasonal shade fluctuations, our helioscope-based shadow analysis can help you eliminate site execution errors, cut down on rework, and increase client confidence in your technical design.
Solar Project Consultants & Developers
Provide reliable statistics to support your plans and feasibility studies. Based on accurate shade modeling, our research replicates real-world solar production, allowing for more accurate yield estimation, bankability reports, and investor presentations—all of which are essential for obtaining project approvals and completing transactions more quickly.
Designers of structures and architects
Create structures that complement the sun rather than work against it. By proactively identifying shade-causing factors (such as surrounding buildings, water tanks, and parapets), our service assists you in making the necessary placement adjustments. This guarantees architectural coherence with solar utility, particularly for energy-efficient construction and green building certifications.
Business and Industrial Customers
Make well-informed decisions about your solar investments without any surprises. By emphasizing shadowed areas, low-efficiency patches, and the best array placement for long-term savings and optimum return on investment, shadow analysis allows you to understand ahead of time how your ground-mounted or rooftop system will operate throughout the year.

Process Workflow (Timeline Style) ( S6 )
Methodical Procedure to Guarantee Precise Shadow Simulation and Yield Evaluation
With little back and forth, our procedure is made to provide high-precision shadow analysis based on helioscopes. Every step, from site inputs to final reports, is designed to reduce time while guaranteeing that you receive dependable, presentation-ready outputs for design, approval, or decision-making.
Gathering Site Data and Input
We begin by collecting key site data like coordinates, rooftop dimensions, blueprints, and obstacle details via WhatsApp, Google Drive, or email. Accurate inputs ensure a realistic, project-specific Helioscope simulation from the start
Configuring the Helioscope Model
Using Helioscope, we digitally recreate your site with inputs like tilt, azimuth, system size, and obstacles to simulate year-round sun movement. This ensures your layout is optimized in 2D and 3D to minimize shading losses.
Shading Analysis & Energy Simulation
We run full-year shadow and irradiance simulations to calculate monthly/yearly yield, shading losses, system efficiency, and derating factors. This analysis helps assess real-world performance and ROI—critical for commercial and industrial projects.
Report Delivery & Expert Consultation
You’ll receive a detailed Helioscope Shadow Analysis Report in PDF format with 3D overlays, solar access graphs, and energy yield estimates. We also provide a consultation call to explain key insights and suggest improvements perfect for proposals, EPC teams, or investor decks
