Jordn Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hello everyone, please share your best image/design created with PV Sol. Why? - To show and explain the best ways to create visually attractive solar systems. This is mine created with amazing PV Sol; A new-build housing development in the UK - instead of roofing with attractive expensive Cornish slate, the contractor wants to reduce their material costs by installing in-roof panels and experiment with how 'green' they could get. We were able show the contractor thier project in PV Sol by;Importing the site plan, altering the orientation and referencing elevation plans to recreate the neibourhood. Orange buildings highlight PV systems within public view, lighter buildings highlight PV systems with limited public view, grey buildings highlight properties outside consideration. The image went down so well it was reported the contractor specially printed this at poster size to show and tell to Prince Charles of Wales. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
developer_mh Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 This is excellent, Jordn! Thank you for sharing this. Impressive! Really a nice idea to share those projects. Some time ago there was another project from UK that was shared here in the forum, let me see if I can find it. Here it is. I like it because there is also a picture of the real PV system: Kind regards, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordn Posted May 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 Is it possible to change the blue sky texture to a different texture? The existing texture is great, yet just for visual reasons, might be nice to set a sunset/sunrise/cloudy/other skyboxes textures. Thanks, Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
