The orthorectified map is geometrically corrected to give more accurate dimensions. The standard map uses raw satellite data which means dimensions may be distorted, particularly for sloped structures.   Where possible you will want to use the orthorectified ...

Easy PV returns the smallest cable cross-sectional area that achieves a voltage drop less than 1% of the voltage across the cable (or the largest cable if none do). The voltage drop along a cable is the product of the current and resistance. The current is ca...

For Quick Roof projects, you have to directly set the orientation rather than it being calculated based on the satellite map. This is done in degrees from south, going clockwise. For example: South: 0° from south  South-east: -45...

Weight loading calculations will often fail for plain tile roofs. This is because we use MCS default values for the tile weight, and the value for plain tiles is much higher than other roof coverings. If you are finding your calculations are failing when you d...

Every homeowner investing in solar PV and battery storage is seeking a positive return on investment (ROI) alongside environmental benefits. As experts in the field, we (the installers and solutions providers) carry a crucial responsibility: ensuring customers...

Designing and selling solar PV systems isn’t just about technical accuracy. It’s about helping customers understand what they’re investing in and how their choices affect long‑term savings. A well‑structured proposal document can make the difference between co...

What is energy management? Energy management is the process of controlling how you use the energy a solar PV system generates and how and when energy is imported from, or exported to the grid. Instead of simply generating solar power and using it as it comes,...

The default financial settings you configure in your Easy PV account provide the baseline assumptions for every project. They save time by pre‑populating proposals with consistent values, but more importantly, they ensure that you can present customers with cr...
