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 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
