BERLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Odersun AG, manufacturer of customized photovoltaic solutions for building integration (BiPV), published today a software tool to design individually fitted solar modules. The configuration software named “Solarmodule-Designer” addresses architects and planners in search of customizable photovoltaic elements.

The Solarmodule-Designer enables the user to create solar modules optimized for individual building projects and systems. Size, form, appearance as well as build-up and materials can be modified in detail to fit applications such as solar-integrated roofs and façades. Despite its unique diversity of adjustable parameters, the tool proves intuitive and easy to use.

“We find the Solarmodule-Designer to be a very effective tool to demonstrate our products’ vast scope of creative design. The customized manufacturing of solar modules still is, after all, a new and often extremely technical area.” explains Uwe Hering, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of Odersun AG, the software’s background. “This configuration software was purpose-build to allow users to experience the unique capabilities of Odersun’s customized products in an easy, appealing and yet technically accurate way.”

A special feature for the user is the export function with its detailed PDF summary of the parameters chosen and an additional CAD version of the user’s individually designed solar module for download. The Odersun Solarmodule-Designer is free of charge and can be accessed online via:
