Technology for the Future of Solar & Storage

Built by solar experts, designed for scale and proven across more than 18 GW of operating assets.

SOLV Energy’s in‑house software ecosystem brings together real‑time data, field‑tested tools, and advanced analytics to deliver safer builds, faster schedules and higher‑performing assets — throughout the full 35‑year lifecycle of a project.

Sunscreen

Real-Time Construction Intelligence for Utility-Scale Projects

Sunscreen is SOLV Energy’s proprietary construction management platform — designed specifically for the speed, scale and complexity of solar and storage builds. Originally developed as a simple QA/QC app, Sunscreen has evolved into a comprehensive field intelligence system used by project teams across the country.

Transform How Projects Are Built

 

Provides 24/7 access to jobsite data via mobile, tablet or desktop

 

Used by 1,440+ field personnel on SOLV construction sites

 

Designed for rugged field environments with intuitive, purpose-built workflows

Key Capabilities

 

  • QA/QC Reporting
    Standardized checklists, photo documentation, digital signatures and instant issue resolution keep quality high and rework low.
  • Daily Activity & Progress Tracking
    Construction teams capture daily operations, while visual maps, video updates and progress dashboards keep stakeholders aligned.
  • Schedule Integration
    Real‑time field data is compared against the P6 project schedule to identify risks early and accelerate decision‑making.
  • Module & Serial Tracking
    Barcode scans tied to GPS‑specific locations provide unmatched traceability for warranty claims and troubleshooting.
  • Safety Support
    Near‑miss reporting, activity monitoring and documentation create safer, more transparent job sites.
Real Impact

Sunscreen reduces manual reporting time by up to 90%, improves accountability, strengthens client visibility and helps SOLV deliver consistent, high‑performance projects on aggressive timelines.

Vitals

Data-Driven Performance Across GWs of Operating Assets

Vitals is SOLV Energy’s proprietary O&M analytics platform — a modern, cloud‑based system that helps teams assess performance, identify issues faster and reduce energy loss across some of the largest solar and storage fleets in the U.S.
 

Scale That Sets Us Apart

 

21.7+ TWh of energy data recorded

 

2.8 million data points captured every 5 seconds

 

50+ terabytes of operating data logged and growing

Key Capabilities

 

  • Real‑Time Operational Visibility
    View performance at any level — from portfolio trends to individual strings and components.
  • Advanced Analytics & Loss Categorization
    Quickly diagnose soiling, inverter downtime, availability losses and underperformance drivers.
  • Contractual Metrics Tracking
    Monitor availability, energy losses by category and modeled versus actual production.
  • Fleetwide Benchmarking
    Compare assets side‑by‑side to uncover systemic trends and performance improvement opportunities.
  • Data Transparency for Customers
    Export raw and calculated data for audits, reporting or third‑party reviews.
  • Integration with SOLV’s O&M Ecosystem
    Vitals connects directly with O&M scheduling tools, the Operations Control Center and field service operations.
Real Impact

Vitals enables faster issue resolution, reduced maintenance costs, validated reporting and more accurate forecasting. The result: optimized energy production and stronger long‑term financial performance for asset owners.
