Caneco - PV Integration
An electrical design software specifically programmed to size photovoltaic installations with self-consumption or re-injection into the grid
Currently available in France & Spain only
Overview
Caneco PV Integration is an electrical design software that is used to size photovoltaic installations. It also delivers calculations for cable cross-sections and protection, including circuit breaker rating.
The Caneco PV Integration software is capable of handling small and large scale PV installations, from PV power plants and solar canopies to tertiary/agricultural installations where PV panels are located on roofs or sheds. It is designed to ensure that calculations comply with French standards NF C15-100 (Low-Voltage installations), NF C13-200 (Medium-Voltage installations) and NF C15-712 (PV installation guide).
Subscription Options

Challenges customers face
Design offices and installers carry out dimensioning studies to determine the characteristics of an installation, such as cable cross-sections and circuit-breaker ratings. Regulation authorities and commissioning agents, on their end, check that calculations comply with various standards. These calculations are traditionally performed in a spreadsheet format and can represent a significant amount of time in the PV design process, as well as in the formatting of deliverables.
Each member of this critical design to installation process faces multiple challenges when designing PV installations, challenges that the Caneco PV Integration module/software allows them to quickly overcome:
- Ensuring Data reliability
- Complying to security requirements and technical best practices and standards
- Meeting sustainability criteria
- Reducing design times
