What ships into the plugin, release by release

A public log of what lands in ELAP. No roadmap, no promises: only capabilities that are already in the tool, with their declared scope.

ELAP is under active development. This log is updated with every release.

July 2026

Earthwork takeoff, multi-provider weather, and protection coordination

  • Civil

    Earthwork takeoff: cut surplus with swell and compaction factors, trench backfill, and civil quantity rows integrated into the BOM.

  • Data

    Multi-provider weather: PVGIS, NASA POWER, Open-Meteo, NSRDB, and Solcast, with your own API key per provider stored encrypted on your machine.

  • Electrical

    Protection coordination with inverter backfeed, IEC 60255 time-current curves, and MV ring verification under N-1 contingency.

  • Electrical

    Interactive TCC curve workbench to tune and document coordination.

  • Electrical

    MV collector and HV line sizing with tapered feeders per segment.

  • Electrical

    BESS inside the drawing flow: from container layout to the single-line diagram.
