pumping, stand-alone and DC-grid PV systems. In addition, extensive databases of photovoltaic system component, as well as a range of broad-spectrum solar energy utensils are provided. PVsyst is intended for architects, engineers and researchers. It includes a user-friendly project development guide as well as a comprehensive contextual help menu that explains the approaches and models employed. PVsyst receives meteorological and personal data from a variety of sources. PVsyst produces a complete report, graphs and tables, as well as exportable data. This simulator is generally developed for solar designers, researchers and engineers. It is enormously favorable for learning and training [39]. The PVsyst system's design board is demonstrated in **Figure 8**.

Key Features:


### **7.3 Solar labs**

Solar Labs are unique and effective software for solar designing as well as sales growth in photovoltaic community. It concentrates in creating software for PV solar installers and commercial sectors to develop pilot sales quotes and elevate system proposals. They were established in 2017 and its headquarters is in India [40].

Design Formation: This simulator generates designs that are simple, easy, accurate, reliable and fast, which can be viewed in 2D or 3D. Also creates various rehearsals and picks the best reliable solution liable on customer's requirements.

Smarter Energy Modeling and Profiling: It develops thorough electrical figures and diagrams for domestic and commercial projects in a few minutes. You can easily illustrate the mounting templates and panel tilt values by selecting from a range of options. Draw-in barriers of any figure with the help of the polygon tool and others.

Precise Simulations and Shading Analysis: Without difficulty calculate your monthly, annual power consumption and production. Generate shading patterns of any single day of the year and simulate reliable heat maps according to your proposals.

Trade Proposals and Profit-making Reports: Invite clients with systematic and farreaching attractive proposals. Attention on the basic factors like vital growing metrics and make available several financial options in a brief mode. Observe your aggregate savings, Return Period and Interior Return Rate in one single assessment.
