RatedPower unveils 3D Energy
Thursday, October 23, 2025
Breakthrough in solar PV simulation technology combines ray-tracing, real-world validation and integrated layout editing for precision and performance in PV plant design
MADRID, Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- RatedPower, a part of Enverus, the most trusted energy-dedicated SaaS company that leverages generative AI across its solutions, is unveiling 3D Energy, the company's most advanced solar PV performance simulation tool yet.
Designed for developers, EPCs, engineering firms, technical advisors and bankers, 3D Energy delivers unparalleled accuracy and insight through cutting-edge ray-tracing technology and validation with real-world data. Users now have access to granular energy results for their PV plants by replacing simplified energy calculations with detailed, more representative 3D Energy analysis.
The engineering team at Alten Energías Renovables has already backed the product noting, "The new 3D energy tool from RatedPower is a disruptive energy model in the industry as it may step up the yield calculation precision. Moving to more and more complex lands, makes yield calculation more difficult and less accurate due to slopes. RatedPower has studied this problem in detail and has proposed a way of making a more realistic simulation. This way, differences between financial model predictions and real production may be closer."
The 3D Energy tool has been developed using advanced ray-tracing technology with module-by-module analysis validated using data from real companies. It saves time and reduces cost by using one tool to create PV designs and run 3D Energy results in only one click - no need for the use of external tools.
"The rise of bifacial modules and limited availability of ideal terrain for solar PV plants have revealed limitations of traditional energy modeling tools," said Nacho Alvarez, senior product manager at RatedPower. "To address these challenges, we developed a 3D Energy model for accurately predicting the yield of PV plants thanks to an improved shading analysis based on Ray-Tracing technology. The calculation model has been validated against real world PV plant performance, boosting the reliability and accuracy of the results. Together with our Layout Editor tool, 3D Energy allows users to refine their designs based on precise energy results, identify underperforming areas caused by shading or terrain, and optimize the overall layout of the plant."
With this advanced technology users have access to:
-- Enhanced project design: Identify and improve underperforming areas due
to shading and slopes directly within the platform.
-- Detailed electrical modeling: The only tool offering model-by-model
production calculations with this level of electrical detail.
-- Optimized variable integration: Automatically factors in terrain-aware
backtracking, topography, bifaciality, mounting geometry, edge effects,
and mutual shading.Get reliable parcel-level land data in early-stage
site prospecting in minutes
-- Comprehensive reporting: Export results in PDF, CSV, AutoCAD, GLTF, and
PVcollada formats, with full methodology documentation.
-- All-in-one cloud-based solution: Design PV and BESS systems, run 3D
simulations, achieve detailed layout editing and manage
documentation--all in a single collaborative environment.
-- Streamlined PV design workflow: Eliminate the need for multiple tools
and improve team collaboration with integrated layout editing and
shading analysis.
With 3D Energy you will improve shading assessment, deliver more precise irradiance calculations, identify underperforming areas, and get access to comprehensive financial outputs to strengthen third-party financing opportunities, all in one place.
