Abstract

Power equipment designed for use at a particular location comprises an insolation database, a load database, a processing system, and solar power equipment. The insolation database comprises insolation values associated with a plurality of geographic data points. The load database associates appropriate power equipment with load requirements. The processing system determines a solar power design from load requirements generated from the insolation database based on the insolation values associated with a geographic data point closest to the particular location and the load requirements selected from the load database. The solar power equipment is installed according to the solar power design.
