I have changed my perception of this geographic stereotype. Was always told it was raining in the valleys..

Your thinking of holiday season when Wales seems to turn into the rainiest place on earth

Looks like another good day on the cards today.

Last 3 days have made a huge difference in production and export

I’ve got home assistant set up and getting all the data from Solis… I’ve had a look at getting pvoutput automated but it looks like the pvoutput integration for HA pulls data into HA rather than the other way. Anyone got home assistant automatically exporting to PVoutput?

You can use something a bit like this for the Givenergy local pvoutout:

GitHub - cdpuk/givenergy-local: Home Assistant integration for local access to GivEnergy inverter and battery systems

Home Assistant integration for local access to GivEnergy inverter and battery systems - cdpuk/givenergy-local

github.com

It's just a bash/shell script that sends the sensor data to a web url with an API key and a System ID that you get from the pvoutput website.

You may need to change the sensor names based on what Solis calls the equivalent things.

Once the service exists you can call it on an automation schedule to run.

17.3kwh today, can’t wait to see what this system can do when the shading gets out the way!

gpuerrilla · 8 Feb 2023 at 16:48

4.5 another barely sunny day - agree I cant wait for a cloudless day to see what the system is able to do in a February.

redfist · 8 Feb 2023 at 16:52

Thought today was going to be bad but as soon as I posted the sun came out and stayed for the rest of the day. Managed 18.2kWh’s today!

Welshman · 8 Feb 2023 at 17:15

next week looks ok/good

10 and a bit kwh for me. Top row/string are mostly unshaded now but another 2 or so weeks until my bottom string has full view of the sun all day, then be looking at a 20+kwh on a day like today!

Ron-ski · 8 Feb 2023 at 19:29

12.01kWh today which means an efficiency of 3, almost a perfect day as well, just a little dip around 1pm. 18 October was the last time I got that much in a day.

That's because my electricians coming that week, and the panels are going on the roof.
