About
PVcase is an end-to-end solar project development platform designed to help energy professionals deliver faster, more accurate solar projects at every stage. The platform brings together four core products: Prospect for intelligent site selection, Ground Mount for AutoCAD-based utility-scale design, Roof Mount for commercial and industrial rooftop design, and Yield for robust energy modeling and estimation. With PVcase Prospect, developers can analyze land around key points of interest and uncover high-potential sites in minutes using a cloud-based interface—eliminating the need to juggle disconnected tools. PVcase Ground Mount automates utility-scale solar layout design up to 90% faster than manual methods, adapting complex designs to real-world terrain with precision. Roof Mount enables rapid, automated rooftop designs that accelerate approvals and project execution. PVcase Yield replaces guesswork with crystal-clear energy insights that de-risk investment decisions. Trusted by industry leaders like AES, RWE, Voltalia, Iberdrola, and ib Vogt, PVcase underpins the development of more than 4 TW of solar projects annually. The platform is ideal for solar project developers, engineering teams, and EPC contractors working on utility-scale, commercial, and industrial projects worldwide. Headquartered in Vilnius, Lithuania, PVcase operates globally with offices in Spain and the UK.
