Size it to your target.

Pick a battery and inverter, and FluxPilot sizes the project to your target MWh. You get container counts, inverter pairings, and the augmentation schedule.

Lay it out on your site.

Import your site, and FluxPilot places each inverter with its battery containers, then generates access roads around the rows, feeder by feeder. Block size, spacing, and grouping are all yours to shape to the design you want.

Model it. Iterate.

Set the project horizon and let FluxPilot build the augmentation plan. As batteries age, it adds capacity to maintain the target usable energy for as long as the project requires, then models the remaining degradation through the product's supported life. Change the battery, energy target, weather assumptions, or layout and run the design again in seconds.

The full workflow

Everything from first sizing to a full site draft.

One tool covers the chain that today lives across a dozen spreadsheets, a CAD seat, and a weather download. It keeps the numbers in one place while you iterate.

01 · ENGINE

Sizing engine

Sizes AC and DC batteries of any type, with separate or bundled aux accounting. You get container counts, inverter pairings, and augmentation schedules.

02 · LAYOUT

Layout engine

Lay out multiple site areas with automated equipment placement, access roads, and configurable spacing. Refine the design around the site, then export it for review and sharing.

03 · CLIMATE

Weather and aux

Use 25 years of site-specific weather data to develop P50, P90, and P99 design conditions, estimate auxiliary loads, and size the system for the climate it will operate in.

04 · LIBRARY

Libraries and shared projects

Import reusable battery, inverter, loss-profile, and layout libraries. Share a project with your team inside the app, with nothing to export or pass around.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is FluxPilot?

FluxPilot is software that sizes utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) to a target MWh and lays them out on your real site. It produces container counts, inverter pairings, augmentation schedules, access roads, and feeders in minutes instead of weeks.

Who is FluxPilot for?

It is built for utility-scale storage and solar-plus-storage developers, IPPs, and EPC and engineering firms who size and lay out battery projects.

Does FluxPilot support AC block and DC block batteries?

Yes. FluxPilot sizes both AC block and DC block batteries of any chemistry, with separate or bundled auxiliary power accounting.

What is a battery augmentation schedule, and how does FluxPilot model it?

Batteries lose capacity as they age, so augmentation adds capacity over time to keep delivering the target energy. FluxPilot models a 20-year augmentation schedule that holds usable energy flat as the batteries decay.

Can I lay out containers, inverters, and roads on my own site?

Yes. FluxPilot places every container and inverter across multiple areas of your site, generates access roads, and lets you shape block size, spacing, and grouping to the design you want.

What do I need to run FluxPilot, and what files does it use?

FluxPilot runs in a modern web browser, with nothing to install. It imports your site as a DXF and your equipment libraries as .bfx files, and you share projects with your team inside the app.

How is FluxPilot different from spreadsheets and CAD?

Sizing, site layout, and iteration live in one tool, so a full design iteration takes minutes instead of moving numbers between spreadsheets and a CAD seat for days.
