Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 3 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

The Manual Process of Sizing a Solar Project

Right now, sizing up solar installations means jumping between three or four different tabs. You start by calculating the needed panel count in one spreadsheet, then copy those numbers into another to get the total square footage. After that, you have to manually input your initial costs and projected savings into a third financial model just to see if it makes sense.

It's tedious, error-prone work involving multiple copies, pastes, and assumptions about data consistency. The whole process feels less like engineering planning and more like an accounting audit.

You Get a Full Blueprint with `calculate_panels_needed`

With this MCP, you hand over your energy consumption data once. The agent handles the complex math for panel quantity and area simultaneously. You don't copy anything; you just get the final number.

The calculation flow is now automated. It moves from pure physics (how many panels?) to physical space (what footprint?) without a single manual step.

What your AI can actually do with this

Need to figure out if a solar project is actually worth the trouble? This connector handles the heavy lifting of calculating both the engineering specs and the cash flow projections. You feed it local irradiation levels and monthly energy usage in Brazil, and it spits out actionable numbers. It tells you exactly how many panels are necessary for your consumption goals, calculates the precise square footage needed on site, and estimates your break-even timeline based on initial costs versus expected savings.

Running these calculations is usually a nightmare of spreadsheets and manual lookups—a messy process that makes proper planning feel impossible. But now, through Vinkius, you can ask your agent to run all three models in sequence. It cuts the guesswork out of big green initiatives.

Questions you might have

How do I use `calculate_panels_needed` for my monthly energy usage? +

You must provide your total monthly kWh consumption and the local irradiation data. The tool then outputs the precise panel count required to meet that demand.

What are the inputs for `calculate_area_needed`? +

This tool requires you to input the calculated number of panels or specific dimensions so it can determine the total surface area needed in square meters.

Does `calculate_financial_payback` use Brazilian currency? +

Yes, the model is set up to estimate the break-even period based on your local investment costs and expected savings within the Brazilian market context.

Can I run all three calculations at once? +

Absolutely. You can ask your agent to sequence the tools: first calculate panel count, then the area needed for that count, and finally estimate the payback period using those figures.

If I provide invalid or missing irradiation data when running `calculate_panels_needed`, what happens? +

The MCP will return a specific error code and message. It tells you exactly which input is incorrect—for instance, if the irradiation level falls outside of the expected range for your location.

Does `calculate_panels_needed` support calculating requirements for different regions besides Brazil? +

This MCP is configured using Brazilian energy standards and local irradiation maps. For accurate results in other countries, you'll need to adjust the tool inputs to match those international data sets.

How should I use `calculate_area_needed` if my solar installation has multiple disconnected sections? +

You must provide the total required surface area as a single, summed measurement. The MCP doesn't calculate compound areas; you need to add up the square meters for all parts before running the tool.

Are there any rate limits if I run multiple estimates using `calculate_financial_payback` in rapid succession? +

The Vinkius platform handles standard API throttling. If you plan on high-volume batch processing, like dozens of payback period calculations per minute, check the Vinkius documentation for dedicated access plans.

How does the panel count calculation work? +

The calculate_panels_needed tool uses your monthly energy consumption, the average solar irradiation for your Brazilian state, and the efficiency/wattage of your panels to determine the exact number of units required.

Can I estimate the installation area? +

Yes, by using calculate_area_needed, you can provide the number of panels and their dimensions to find the total square meters required for your solar array.

How is the payback period calculated? +

The calculate_financial_payback tool takes your total installation cost and divides it by your estimated annual energy savings to find the number of years until you reach the break-even point.
