PV System Design of an SMA Energy System Home with Sunny Design
Sunny Design is a software for planning and designing PV systems with and without self-consumption, off-grid systems, PV hybrid systems as well as energy systems. Sunny Design provides you with design recommendations for your planned systems. Sunny Design proposes a combination of PV array(s) and inverter(s) which meet, as closely as possible, your requirements regarding power class, energy yield and efficiency.
In addition, you have the option of determining and optimizing your potential self-consumption, sizing cables, evaluating efficiency and, in case of PV hybrid and off-grid systems, configuring gensets.
