Nordic Asia

What Nordic Asia does

Nordic Asia is a Seattle, Washington-headquartered professional services firm that provides solar PV design, engineering, and permitting support to solar installers and developers. Founded in 2010 and ISO 9001 certified, the company delivers project-based engineering deliverables covering PVSyst-based energy simulation, AutoCAD array layouts, electrical single-line diagrams, 3D/2D mounting structure design, and STAAD.Pro structural analysis, along with ready-to-submit AHJ permit packages for residential, commercial, and utility-scale solar projects. Its core differentiator is a 24-hour design turnaround with permitting stamps typically delivered within 48 hours, supported by a licensed Professional Engineer network spanning 20 U.S. states.

The firm operates a sales-led, quote-based revenue model charging project fees for each design or permitting package, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Its primary customers are solar PV developers and installers; a secondary segment comprises industrial electrical contractors and switchboard manufacturers served through an Electrical Control Panel Design line that produces manufacturing-ready SLDs, wiring diagrams, BOMs, and general arrangement diagrams. Distribution relies on direct website engagement, a Client CRM portal, and a Partner PRM portal that coordinates work across the P.E. network.

Beyond services, Nordic Asia distributes solar components including DC combiner boxes (600V/1000V), battery and string current monitors, solar cables, and MC4 connectors, moving partially into product supply. Geographic reach is concentrated in the United States with explicit plans to extend permitting coverage beyond California and Texas into additional states. The company is privately held, has 51-100 employees, and reports no disclosed funding, parent company, or institutional investors in the source material.

Revenue model

1. Solar PV Design Services: Professional engineering services for solar PV plant design including PV simulation, array layout, electrical SLDs, 3D/2D mounting structure design, and structural analysis. Revenue generated through project-based service fees for utility and rooftop solar installations.
2. Permitting Services: Engineering services supporting the permitting process for solar installations. Provides ready-to-use application document packages (PDF format) for submission to Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Quick turnaround limits cost overruns for PV installers.
3. Electrical Control Panel Design: Design services for electrical control panels including single line diagrams, wiring diagrams, bill of materials, and general arrangement diagrams for LV/MV switchboards.

Direct peers

• Aurora Solar: Aurora Solar is a SaaS platform that enables solar installers to produce PV designs, electrical drawings, and permit packages themselves. It directly competes with Nordic Asia's outsourced design and permitting services by enabling installers to internalize the workflow the company sells.
• OpenSolar: OpenSolar provides end-to-end solar design, sales, and permitting software for installers. Its free-tier design and permit workflow tools sit adjacent to Nordic Asia's P.E.-stamped, paid engineering service on the same buyer: U.S. solar PV installers needing rapid permitting turnaround.
• Solargis: Solargis provides solar resource data, PV yield modeling, and engineering-grade simulation services used by solar developers during design. It overlaps with Nordic Asia's PV system simulation layer (PVSyst-based design) and competes for engineering-hour budget at the same solar developer customers.
• Clean Energy Associates: Clean Energy Associates is an independent solar engineering and QA/QC firm that serves developers and EPCs with design review, commissioning, and owner's engineering services. It competes with Nordic Asia for design work and has similar customer profiles among utility-scale and C&I installers.
• Radian Generation: Radian Generation is a solar engineering services and asset-management firm providing owner's engineering, design review, and construction monitoring. It targets many of the same solar developers and is one of the closest independent comparables in scope and scale.

Broad incumbents

• Black & Veatch: Black & Veatch is a large global EPC and engineering firm with a renewable energy practice covering solar PV engineering and design. It serves much larger utility-scale developers but competes for the same pre-construction engineering scope Nordic Asia targets at the lower end of the market.
• Mortenson Construction: Mortenson is a top U.S. EPC contractor with a significant renewable energy group delivering utility-scale solar projects. While primarily an EPC, it also performs solar design and engineering in-house, competing for the same utility-scale installer and developer pipeline Nordic Asia serves.
• DNV (Energy Systems): DNV's Energy Systems division offers independent solar engineering, design review, certification, and asset-management services to developers and financiers. It is a much larger and broader engineering advisory that intersects with Nordic Asia's design and permitting activities, particularly on utility-scale projects.
