Trusted by leading renewables developers and advisors
























We deliver highly accurate energy generation timeseries data for your solar and hybrid renewables simulations. Tomsawyer's simulation-ready datasets include:
Multi-source irradiance validation and temperature profiling
Historical timeseries instead of only TMY solar data
Location, equipment & design specific energy timeseries
Beyond hourly resolution for high-stake projects
Example: 20+ years of sub-hourly energy generation data for a 150 MW ground-mount site, with full configuration sweeps and bankable yield reports, delivered in under two weeks.
Our proprietary simulation tools for high-resolution energy timeseries unlocks comprehensive solar PV planning by evaluating all possible equipment and configuration mixes:
Tracker vs. fixed-tilt evaluations
DC stringing, tilt, pitch, and DC/AC ratio optimization
Energy & cost matrix for hundreds of comparisions
Identify the project configuration having the highest return on investment and beat your competition
Site-adapted layouts for ground-mounted and rooftop solar:
Optimized PV stringing design for higher performance and lower cost
BESS & inverter siting
Land-use, terrain and other constraints via SRTM, satellite imagery and stakeholder inputs
Achieve high-quality layouts in CAD and PDF formats for planning discussions and approvals
We conduct detailed energy modeling using PVsyst for optimized designs:
P50, TMY and historical energy timeseries simulations
Expert considerations for loss factors including soiling loss and electrical losses due to shading in complex urban environments
Get detailed comparison of energy yield and design

Solar-BESS pairing analysis
Optimal sizing recommendations and qualitative cost-benefit insight
Prevent wrong-sizing BESS and design profitable DC-coupled systems

How we work
Every engagement is scoped to your project. No templates, no generic reports.
You share your site coordinates, preliminary design assumptions, or a feasibility question you need answered before committing capital. We figure out what analysis will actually move your decision forward.

Our clients share their experience with Tomsawyer
"Tomsawyer performed the work competently and met our expectations throughout the project. They showed a diligent approach and attention to details, and worked in a professional manner, ensuring that the tasks were completed on time and to the required standards. We were satisfied with the quality of their work and appreciate the support they provided."

Ignacio Becares,
Principal Consultant
"What I would say about Tomsawyer is that you are very professional, very dedicated to the work delivering to BBCO Energy. Tomsawyer delivered its advisory service in timely manner, with high responsibility, and caring about customer's problems. I do believe, Tomsawyer will add very good value to its partners/customers by delivering their high quality of work."

Khanh-Loc Nguyen,
CEO
"Tomsawyer helped us clearly understand the long-term techno-economics of distributed energy asset and sensitivities with respect to configuration changes. They were very collaborative and provided efficient and highly professional support."

Andrew Koh,
Managing Director
"It was a pleasure to collaborate with you, and I really appreciated the fact that you understood our sense of urgency and managed to adapt to our short timelines. The pre-feasibility study documentation was according to our expectations, and you even went beyond with helping us selecting some initial equipment to provide energy estimations"

William Gaillard,
Wind Head
"The Tomsawyer team was instrumental in supporting the technical layout design for our first utility-scale solar development in the UK, up to securing planning consent. Their sound knowledge of solar optimization enabled the production of an efficient layout, integrating DC-couple BESS."
