# New in June 2024

##### We’ve rolled out lots of new features in time to show them off at the Installer Show at the Birmingham NEC.

##### For **standard Easy PV** users

- **New consumption task** - this has had a full overhaul and is more flexible and accurate than ever.
    
    
    - There are now three options to use for consumption calculations
        
        
        - Upload half-hourly customer consumption data as a CSV
        - Input user’s annual energy consumption
        - Or estimate based on example property types
    - The calculations can now be based on specific energy tariffs for greater accuracy
        
        
        - Add custom electricity import tariffs, including split rate tariffs where different rates apply to daytime and night-time.
        - Add custom export tariffs
- **Configure financial defaults via your account preferences**
    
    
    - You can configure the defaults you want all projects to use
    - Pre-set the inflation, financial discount and degradation rates and forecast length (i.e. 25 years)
    - Pre-set the default electricity import and export rates for MCS calculations
    - Choose default consumption method for forecasting (MCS-based, Easy PV Consumption Task, or percentage-based)
- **Support for Solshare** for shared solar projects on blocks of flats.
    
    
    - - Add to any projects with three phase inverters
        - Simply choose the number of connections you want and Easy PV will specify all the kit you need
        - Order quickly with Midsummer Wholesale directly from the project
- Various bug fixes and improvements

##### And for **Pro** users

- **DNO applications via the ENA Connect Direct system**
    
    
    - Allows you to submit a pre-installation application very quickly with no need for manually completing and emailing forms to the DNO
    - DNOs approve or reject application within minutes
    - See the status of DNO applications directly from Easy PV
- **Set financial defaults for all users in your team**
    
    
    - You can configure the defaults you want all projects to use for all your users.
    - Pre-set the inflation, financial discount and degradation rates and forecast length (i.e. 25 years)
    - Set default electricity import and export rates for MCS calculations
    - Choose default consumption method for forecasting (MCS-based, Easy PV Consumption Task, or percentage-based)
- **Email sending from your email domain within Easy PV**
    
    
    - You can now configure Easy PV emails to be sent from a generic email address you own, rather than from a [noreply@easy-pv.co.uk](mailto:noreply@easy-pv.co.uk "mailto:noreply@easy-pv.co.uk") email.
    - Via your Pro account settings you can input the SMTP details for the email address you want to use
    - All emails sent from Easy PV by any of your users will be sent to your customers from the email address you have configured
