Digital Solar Asset Management Start-Up Raycatch Launches DeepSolar™ 2.5

The new version of Raycatch's AI-powered solar asset management system is fully focused on remote diagnostics and prioritization of asset performance issues in order to navigate through the “new normal”

Raycatch, a start-up that has developed an innovative AI-driven digital asset management system that automates and optimizes solar PV assets, has just landed its first major update in a year. The new system update, DeepSolar™ 2.5, is fully focused on remote diagnostics and prioritization of solar asset performance issues in order to navigate through the "new normal".


The solar energy industry currently needs oversight that requires less physical human presence on the assets, as part of the social distancing challenge. Solar asset owners, managers and operators must understand what are the most burning issues in their assets, as they must fix the ones that produce the fastest and highest recovery possible.

DeepSolar™ now enables clear quantification and prioritization of all solar asset performance issues, as well as recommendations on how to fix them. Among other features that allow more asset visibility and control, the new version's main feature is the ROI-based Action Plan. Since now there is less access to the assets and managers have to carefully choose what to (and not to) focus on, this new feature shows which issues that should be repaired immediately, either because of their severity or the ability to fix them very quickly ("low-hanging fruit").

Raycatch has also applied more precise quantification techniques and features that allow customers to do more from home. Other new capabilities include detailed and visual inverter insights, finding disconnected strings under low granularity monitoring, and Efficiency Over Time & Efficiency Below Spec graphs, that for the first time comply with the Euro Efficiency standard.

"Solar asset managers need to make sense of their existing ‘noisy' data and understand what are the most burning issues across their portfolio," explains Haggai Hofland, Raycatch CEO and Founder. "The new DeepSolar™ version does just that - it shows what issues must be fixed to gain a quick ROI, and what issues can be delayed to more ‘sane' times - especially ones that require long-term processes, such as manufacturer warranty claims or revamping projects."

About Raycatch

Founded in 2015, Raycatch has developed an innovative, AI-driven digital asset management system that automates and optimizes solar PV assets, making renewable energy more efficient, accessible and profitable. The system delivers a 360° view of the solar assets and shows exactly where are the performance issues, how to solve them and whether fixing them is a worthwhile investment. This enables asset owners, managers and operators to effectively manage their portfolio and optimize their yield.
Raycatch is backed by industry leaders such as BayWa r.e. and Royal DSM. As of 2020, the company successfully enhances over 3GW in solar assets worldwide. Headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, it currently operates six offices around the globe and continues to grow exponentially.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
