Energy consumption from provider - Genesis Energy NZ

Any smart cookies worked out how to pull energy information from NZ’s Genesis Energy (even better if you also have gas).

A while ago I did have a script that would read the power reading by hour from 48 hours ago and push it to influx. But genesis changed their api to oath and I couldn’t get it to authenticate.

If someone has something, or would want to work on something, I’ not sure if I had the code fully public, but can do so.

Was originally discussed here: Scraping Electricity usage (geekzone.co.nz)

Did you ever get a solution for this? I’m searching for the same thing.

Nope. Their authentication was too hard to reverse engineer.

And if you ask them for api access they tell your. You can manually log in and download usage. #headdesk

I put on a glow optical sensor on my power meter.

I forked the frank energy one and got it working with my genesis connection.
