How Latapult Streamlines the Solar Development Process

  • Nationwide Data: Available land data covers the entire U.S. — giving solar developers the ability to compare and enter new markets.
  • Property Search: Latapult can be used to compile a list of potential properties. From there, developers can narrow down that list to pick the most suitable site for a project that maximizes solar output. 
  • Proximity Search Tool: This tool allows solar development teams to find land within a distance of existing transmission lines and substations in order to take full advantage of solar output for surrounding communities.
  • Buildable Area Tool: Allows developers to pick a property or draw their own boundary to compute a buildable area based on various data sets and quickly determine the feasibility of land according to environmental specifications.
