Currently, Solar Pro 5.0 is released in the Japanese version only.
Subscription Service Now Available
High-Precision Solar Power Generation Simulation
Offered on a monthly basis
I want to always use the latest version!
I want to reduce initial costs!
I only need to use it for a short period!
* An initial setup fee is required separately.
* A traditional one-time purchase plan is also available.
Features
Supports bifacial modules
It is now possible to simulate the amount of power generated when using bifacial modules.Accurate calculations can now be made, including the effect on power generation of reflective objects and light reflected from the ground.
Back Coefficient
Back coefficient can be set arbitrarily,and different settings can be made for each module
Object reflection settings
Reflection can be set on the surface of an object
Reflectivity
Different reflectances can be set for different objects, enabling more realistic calculations
Simulation with up to two levels of reflection
Reproduces multiple reflections of reflected light (specular reflection). Supports up to two levels of reflected light simulation from the ground, walls, etc.
It is possible to simulate light reflecting off a wall, onto the ground (first-order reflected light),and then onto the back of a bifacial module (second-order reflected light).Level 2 reflections are displayed in a darker color.
Usage Examples
Power generation system using bifacial modules and reflective sheets
Impact of reflected light from multiple buildings
Optimizer Support
By connecting one unit to one or two modules, it is possible to perform power generation calculations using an "optimizer" that maximizes output efficiency.
Electric circuit configuration screen
Time-specified discharge function
The prioritized discharge function of the Solar Legato Battery can now be simulated in Solar Pro’s self-consumption control simulation.
Additional Time Units for Reports
15-minute and 30-minute intervals have been added to report aggregation settings. Data can be aggregated in 15, 30, or 60-minute intervals and exported as text or Excel files.
Special Upgrade Offer for Users of Version 4.8 and Earlier!
Customers using versions up to 4.8 can upgrade to Solar Pro 5.0 (Network Authentication) at a special price by returning their Protection Connector (USB key).
* It is also possible to upgrade your existing Protection Connector (USB key) to version 5.0. However, please note that all future versions of Solar Pro will be available only as a Network Authentication.Network Authentication
License authentication is performed via the network, eliminating the need for a protection connector (USB key). The license key can be checked from the administrator screen of your Laplace ID.
