Solar Software

Selling photovoltaics. Digitally.

The complete solution for photovoltaic sales: PV check, profitability calculation, quotation and CRM on one platform. In development since 2010, on the market as an online PV calculator since 2016.

The PV check is freely accessible as a demo version. It opens on test.newolution.de and is available in German.

Context

From first interestto a defensible quotation.

Photovoltaic sales rarely fail because of a lack of interest – they fail on the time between enquiry and quotation. The software shortens exactly that path: prospects enter digitally through the PV check, the relevant data is captured in a structured way, and the installer continues in the CRM from the same basis.

The platform is developed and maintained by an in-house team. Legal changes and technology standards are tracked continuously, and custom requirements are implemented without an external service provider.

The concrete functional scope and the integration into existing systems are defined per customer. The solution can be used under our own name or as a white-label variant.

Solar calculator and PV check

A PV result in a few clicks.

Prospects determine system size, yield potential and profitability themselves – without anyone having to type in a formula.

Instant area calculation

The roof is drawn directly on the map view. The usable module area follows automatically.

Shading analysis

Chimneys, dormers and roof windows are taken into account as obstacles – for realistic rather than flattering yield forecasts.

Detailed yield calculation

Integrated PVGIS weather data provides average yields, annual return and payback period.

Lead capture and follow-up

Customer data is captured directly in the PV check, transferred into the CRM and can be answered with personalised cost estimates.

Profitability at a glance

Investment, payback period, self-sufficiency and CO₂ savings are shown side by side.

Shareable PDF report

All results can be exported as a branded PDF report – for the consultation and for sending by email.

Customer management and CRM

A specialised CRM instead of a spreadsheet.

Leads, existing customers and project data sit in one place – aligned to how photovoltaic sales actually works.

01

360° lead management

Leads are captured, segmented and prioritised. Warm prospects are recognisable as such instead of disappearing in a list.

02

Individual sales pipelines

Projects run from first enquiry to quotation through clearly defined milestones with reminders.

03

Automatic appointment management

Reminders for agreed appointments run automatically, so consultations are no longer missed.

04

Central customer history

Interactions and quotations are maintained in one place. Follow-up processes build on the actual state of play.

05

Follow-up workflows

Email reminders for agreed next steps can be automated.

06

Pipeline and analysis

Pipeline, lead conversion and appointment reliability are visible in the dashboard – as a basis for decisions rather than gut feeling.

Data protection. Customer data is protected through role-based permissions, encryption and audit-proof archiving. Hosting runs in a data centre in Germany whose operator is ISO-certified.

Profitability and modelling

Defensible figures instead of a spreadsheet.

The model calculation provides figures on return, payback and storage requirements – matched to the location and budget of the respective project.

  • Individual system size based on roof area, orientation and solar irradiation
  • Long-term profitability analysis over a period of up to 30 years
  • Battery storage check: scenarios with and without storage compared directly
  • Complete cost overview including feed-in tariff, installation and running costs as well as financing examples
  • Comparison variants side by side, exportable as a branded PDF report
  • Current data basis from PVGIS weather data, the statutory feed-in tariff and local grid fees

Quotation

An individual quotation in minutes.

Flexible building blocks and real-time calculation produce a quotation that goes out in the provider's own visual identity.

Flexible block editor

Product and service elements can be adjusted and assembled per quotation.

Discounts and subsidy conditions

Volume prices, special discounts and grants are stored and flow into the calculation automatically.

Branded PDF templates

Finished quotations are exported as PDFs with logo, corporate colours and your own text blocks.

Follow-up reminders

The system sends a timely email reminder for the follow-up appointment.

Speed as an argument

A tailored quotation while still in the meeting rather than days later – the most noticeable competitive difference.

Connected to the CRM

Quotations and profitability data are attached to the customer and project profile, not filed in a separate folder.

Technically and legally current

Requirements change. The software follows.

Legal regulations and technical standards are incorporated continuously – without additional effort on the customer side.

Dynamic electricity tariffs

Integration of daily tariff data in the context of Section 14a EnWG – for realistic payback calculations.

German solar peak act

Reporting obligations and subsidy caps are updated in line with current legislation.

Module layout

Interactive 2D view of the module layout inside the system, for traceable use of the available area.

Tilt angle optimisation

Different tilt angles can be simulated and the highest-yield setup selected.

Open-space planning

Automatic area calculation for larger solar parks.

BDEW load profiles

Official or custom load profiles as the basis for consumption and feed-in forecasts.

EU weather data (PVGIS)

High-resolution EU weather data as the basis of the yield calculation.

Servers in Germany

Hosting in Nuremberg, in a data centre with ISO-certified operations. Processing is GDPR-compliant.

In-house development team

A named contact during business hours and adjustments without an external service provider.

Custom development and interfaces

No building block fits? Then we build one.

Where the standard ends, the in-house team continues. From custom reporting through bespoke export formats to an interface into your existing system landscape.

Connections are made via REST API or Zapier – for example to ERP systems, financial software or planning tools. Scope and feasibility are assessed per project.

Requirements analysis

Use cases and workflow requirements are clarified together before development starts.

Implementation in-house

Features, special calculations and integrations are built internally, not by a subcontractor.

System integration

Tailored APIs connect the platform to the existing infrastructure.

Agile delivery

Compact development stages, regular updates and a fixed contact throughout the project.

White label

Your brand. Our technology.

The solution can run entirely in the visual identity of the respective provider. For sales organisations, installers and cooperations that want their own digital entry point without developing it themselves.

  • Styling in the provider's corporate design
  • Embedding into the existing website
  • Configurable content and assumptions
  • Separate data storage per tenant

In use at photovoltaic providers

The platform is used by installers, sales organisations, energy service providers and municipal initiatives – under their own name and as a white-label variant.
