Transforming the solar panel mapping process
About the Client
Solar Connected is a leading force in the Australian renewable energy sector, specialising in the design and construction of PV and battery systems. Ranked #1 in Queensland for commercial solar installations and #5 nationally, the company delivers large-scale energy solutions with a focus on efficiency, innovation, and performance. As Solar Connected expanded its operations, it identified a critical need to streamline its solar panel placement process to enhance precision, reduce manual effort, and accelerate project timelines.
The Challenge
Manually mapping solar panels onto 2D site plans was a time-intensive process. Engineers had to analyse layouts, determine optimal orientation, and ensure maximum solar yield, all while mitigating the risk of small but costly human errors. As demand for large-scale commercial solar projects grew, the inefficiencies in this manual approach became a bottleneck, impacting scalability and execution speed. Solar Connected required a sophisticated, AI-driven automation solution to optimise panel mapping, enhance accuracy, and increase project efficiency.
The Solution
Recognising the power of AI to transform solar design, Solar Connected partnered with Inject AI to develop a custom-built, automated panel mapping platform. Inject AI engineered a bespoke AI-driven system capable of:
✔ Automating the panel mapping process to determine the most efficient layout for maximum solar yield
✔ Eliminating human error in panel placement and orientation calculations
✔ Accelerating design workflows, enabling faster turnaround times and improved scalability
The intelligent AI model analyses 2D plans, assesses orientation, and produces an optimal layout—delivering a level of precision and efficiency unattainable through traditional manual methods. With this automation, Solar Connected can now execute complex solar projects with greater speed, consistency, and reliability.
“Working with Jamie and Inject AI has been a great experience. He took the time to truly understand our project and was involved at every critical point. His technical expertise in AI, combined with his ability to make complex projects run smoothly, made the entire process frictionless. I’d highly recommend Jamie and his team to any business looking to take a step forward into the world of AI.” - Pete
"Through this collaboration, Solar Connected has transformed the way it designs and deploys commercial solar systems, leveraging AI-driven automation to improve accuracy, efficiency, and scalability. This partnership underscores how tailored AI solutions can drive measurable outcomes, unlocking new levels of innovation in the renewable energy sector.
