Exclusive and US-only features – Overview

Updated

PVcase Prospect offers a range of advanced features to enhance your solar project development. This is a quick overview of all US-only, exclusive, and US-only exclusive features, organized by category.

 

US-only features 

Feature How can it help your siting? How to get it
Environmental permit analysis Quickly identify potential environmental permitting challenges for your project site by highlighting key factors like wetlands, flood zones, and protected areas.  This feature is available for all US-based licenses
Phone number lookup (Reverse address lookup)

Contact landowners more quickly by pulling in phone numbers connected to a parcel's site and mailing addresses.

You don't have to look up phone numbers one-by-one.

 This feature is available for all US-based licenses
Data Center Community Sentiment Layer Align your development plans with local community sentiment early in the process. This way,  you can minimize risk and delays in high-friction areas and fast-track sites with strong local backing.
 		 This feature is available for all US-based licenses

Exclusive features (all regions) 

Feature How can it help your siting? How to get it
Layouts Generate layouts, capacity, and AC yield for project parcels to enhance site selection. Filter/sort parcels by DC capacity, AC capacity, and AC yield to quickly identify suitable land. Contact us for more information.

Exclusive Features (US Only)

Feature How can it help your siting? How to get it
Capacity See injection and charging capacity (full N-1 studies) at the very beginning of your site selection process to make sure you're targeting areas of the grid with capacity or feasible allocated costs.  Contact us for more information.
Power Market Analysis
  • Assess financial viability using historical Locational Marginal Pricing (LMP) and node-to-hub basis risk.
  • Maximize returns by targeting the most profitable grid nodes and regions early on.
  • De-risk projects by eliminating unprofitable sites and strengthening PPA negotiations.
 Contact us for more information.
Distribution Grid layers Provide developers with a preliminary distribution grid map, including the locations of DG lines and substations. This allows them to begin parcel sourcing immediately without the time-consuming manual task of tracing and locating the distribution grid. Contact us for more information.
Predictive flood mapping
  • Get accurate, climate-adjusted flood risk data with 100% coverage for the U.S. that is much more accurate than what FEMA offers and has coverage for every county in the US.
  • Understand real, scientific, climate-adjusted flood risk for a property from day 1 rather than relying on outdated or non-existent FEMA flood maps (don't wait just for hydro study months later).
  • Defer costs on expensive hydro studies until later in the project lifecycle while still ensuring you have enough acreage to pursue site control.
  • Calculate accurate buildable acreage based on best-available flood risk and depth data on the market.
