AI Co-Pilot for Solar Installers
ENERGY
AI for CleanTech with Procurement Intelligence
Intelligent AI assistant for automated solar plant BOM generation and smart procurement optimization.
Objectives
The objective was to develop an AI-powered co-pilot to assist solar installers in planning, optimizing, and procuring components for solar plant installations. The goal was to reduce manual effort, improve cost efficiency, and enable faster, data-driven decision-making in a highly price-volatile market.
Solutions
We developed an AI-driven conversational co-pilot tailored for solar installation professionals. Installers can input project details such as plant capacity, location, and configuration preferences through a text or voice-enabled interface designed for field usability.
The AI engine generates a complete and technically validated Bill of Materials (BOM), covering solar panels, inverters, AC/DC cables, optional batteries, ACDB, DCDB, earthing systems, mounting structures, and related components. Built-in compatibility rules ensure configuration accuracy and reduce planning errors.
To address component price volatility, the platform integrates real-time market intelligence and supplier data, evaluating pricing, availability, and dealer proximity to recommend the most cost-effective sourcing strategy.
Installers can refine selections before finalization, after which the system enables seamless purchase order generation directly from the platform.
