Our verdict on Solargis Evaluate
Solargis Evaluate is a cloud-based web platform for solar project developers and engineers designing photovoltaic power plants and assessing expected energy production. Its toolkit combines a 3D energy-system designer, configurable layout and terrain parameters, ray-tracing PV yield simulation, solar, meteorological and environmental analysis, and a component catalog with verified specifications. The product is positioned for utility-scale development and financing assessments, making it a fit for larger development and engineering teams.
The published subscription is €12,000 and includes 60 Early Stage projects, unlimited 15-minute TMY P50 simulations per project, unlimited designs per project, unlimited collaborators per project, and solar, meteorological and environmental data for every project. Charts and tables support resource, climate and PV analysis, while generated simulation and energy-yield reports help document evaluations. Project lists, user management and collaboration features support multi-person workflows. There is no free plan, so the product is aimed at organizations able to commit to a paid evaluation environment.
Solargis Evaluate fits teams that need detailed production analysis and handoffs into established PV modeling workflows. Project data can be exported in JSON and CSV, as well as formats for PVsyst, NREL SAM and HelioScope. Cloud deployment and an ISO27001 compliance posture support centralized access and controlled project work. Its scope remains centered on early-stage design and yield assessment: it does not provide a proposal builder or monitoring portal. Developers seeking utility-scale evaluation, simulation depth and interoperable exports should consider it; teams needing proposal creation or operational monitoring should choose a broader platform.
