Solarscope

SolarScope is a browser-based tool for commercial solar developers who need to judge whether a location is worth pursuing. Instead of gathering separate datasets, the user opens a map-first workspace called Site Studio and sees solar potential, transmission lines, flood zones and other site constraints in one place. The homepage says the product is still in development and is recruiting beta testers.

A typical session starts by pinning a project area by address or coordinates, then switching on data layers such as PVGIS and NREL solar radiation, transmission infrastructure and flood zones. An AI project assistant answers questions about the selected site using irradiance, terrain, constraints and financial inputs, while a pipeline analysis feature compares a whole portfolio, ranks sites by opportunity and points out where data is missing.
