REplace is the ultimate tool for developing renewable energy projects, making the identification of the optimal location for your solar or wind greenfield project effortless.


We collaborated closely with the REplace team with a clear objective: to rebuild their MVP from the ground up within a tight timeframe.

The Process
We went through an end to end process, beginning with redefining user needs, conceptualizing the product, and progressing to design.

To achieve this, we employed techniques such as user stories and 'how might we' questions. With this information, we identified the product's core functionalities and determined which features could be prioritized for later development.

Discovery
We went through a discovery phase where we clearly defined the key features of the minimum viable (and lovable) product. To achieve this, we first identified the primary actions users wanted to perform. Based on these insights,we established the core requirements for the user flow. Once the flow was mapped out, we proceeded to create the wireframes.
The Challege
During a four week sprint,
we helped REplace define their new MVP.

As a renewable energy project developer, I want to automate the site selection process so that I can identify optimal locations in seconds, reducing the failure rate of projects.
As a landowner, I want to check the viability of my land for renewable energy projects and connect with potential developers.
UI
Since there wasn’t a full UI design system, a UI kit was put together to cover the basics. This kit helped keep the design consistent and on-brand, making the whole process smoother and more efficient.

It all starts with a search…
We identified the search feature as the product's core element. Once a search is performed, users can access detailed information about recommended sites and download comprehensive business cases that include all relevant parameters. This enables informed decision-making, increasing ROI and reducing the development risk of renewable energy projects.

“Having Flexxi as our design consultant for version 2.0 of our product was the best decision we could have made. Their quality of work and speed of delivery were incredible. They worked with exceptional professionalism and a deep understanding of our needs, even in the complex renewable energy market. The result was a significantly more polished and professional look and feel for our product, which is driving increased sales.”
We focused on the key elements that provided the most value to users, with site information being central to the REplace product. By understanding each piece of land, users can determine whether it's suitable for their projects.
