Solar PV Design.

CuriousKid Engineering is a Solar PV and BESS design partner working behind the scenes for EPCs, installers and solar sales teams. We help you design faster, quote sooner, and win more business by taking care of the technical backend — from system design and engineering to detailed documentation and support. With competitive pricing and reliable turnaround times, we become an extension of your team, so you can focus on sales, customers, and growing your business while we handle the design work.

Engagement models

Where do we fit in your organisation?

We plug into the gaps in your team — providing the design and engineering support you need, exactly when you need it. Whether you're a sales team without a dedicated designer, a developer who needs technical support, or an engineering team facing a heavy workload, we work alongside your team to keep projects moving.

Sales teams

Your design team, without the overhead

From preliminary design and system sizing to pricing and a complete proposal package, we take projects from concept to client-ready — so your sales team can focus on closing.

Solar developers

Technical expertise when you need it

We support your development process with preliminary designs, energy yield analysis, financial modelling, BOMs, pricing and RFP documentation — helping you move projects forward with confidence.

In-house engineering

Extra capacity when workloads peak

When your pipeline gets busy, we become an extension of your engineering team. We take on drafting and design work, increase your capacity and help you meet deadlines without adding permanent headcount.

Installers

Drawings your crews can build from

We prepare construction-ready drawings and as-built documentation that fit your installation process — giving your field teams clear information to build from and your clients accurate documentation to hand over.

Custom support

Built around your workflow

Every business has its own way of working. Tell us how your process works, and we adapt to it. We learn your standards, templates, tools and approval process so our work fits seamlessly into your existing operation.

Deliverables

What lands in your inbox

Two halves of the same job. Everything before the sale is won, and everything needed once it is.

Pre-sales engineering

Winning the job

Preliminary design

Panel layouts in AutoCAD, PV*SOL, PVsyst, HelioScope, Aurora, or whichever platform you already work in.

Site prospecting

Rooftops worth pursuing, identified from Google Maps, Nearmap and municipal maps against your pre-qualifying criteria.

Yield and savings

Bills, hourly data and generation modelled together to size the saving.

Sales proposals

Your back-end design team, building the proposal and preliminary design inside your existing process.

Tender and RFP work

We read, design and price up solar projects against the tender or RFP requirements.

Custom scope

Not listed here? We will learn your process and take on part of it, or all of it.

Post-sales engineering

Building it

Complete design package

Everything assembled into one professional document, ready for approvals and for handover.

Single line and wiring diagrams

SLD, three-line diagram, and communication system wiring diagram.

PV module layout drawings

Optimised module layout, mounting attachment detail, string layout, cable, tray and conduit layout.

Cable schedule and sizing

Cable sizing, short-circuit calculations, DC and AC cable schedules, string sizing calculations.

Switchgear and protection

Circuit breaker sizing and selection for the protection system.

Metering and monitoring

Metering and instrumentation design, and solar monitoring system design.

Beyond design

The work that comes after the drawings

Plants do not stop needing engineers once they are energised.

Generation analysis and troubleshooting

Reading generation data, diagnosing underperformance, and running root cause analysis.

3D layout and visualisation

SketchUp models, walkthrough videos, and inverter and equipment placement drawings.

Plant performance monitoring

We watch your existing PV portfolio, issue regular reports, and flag urgent alarms to your maintenance team.

Network and utility approvals

Filling out forms and preparing documentation for your network and council approvals.

Tooling

We work in your software, not ours

AutoCAD SketchUp HelioScope PVsyst PV*SOL Aurora OpenSolar SolarPlus SolarEdge Designer

Files come back in the format your team opens every day — no conversion step, no relearning, nothing for your engineers to unpick.

Work samples

Read the output before you commit

Two complete design sets, opened straight in your browser. No form, no email address, no call first.

Both sets run cover sheet through site plan, single line diagram, cable schedules, string wiring, routing and material list — the same package your crews would receive. Want something closer to your own project type? Ask and we will send it across.
