Energy dashboard and Solax grid and battery integration

Configuration
1

I’ve gone through a lot of configurations on energy meter and solax but struggled to get a comprehensive view so I’m listing how I have configured to help others. Part of the code is borrowed from different posts as every post adds some knowledge to the configuration that I’ve used and thanks for all who have shared their configurations :slight_smile: :hugs:
I’ve two standard solax inverters and 1 hybrid inverter connected to battery. So even if no solar output is produced the ac output of the Solax hybrid will still have output getting the value from battery.

I thought that Energy dashboard gives real time info just like solax

But it DOESN’T, it shows real time moving dots but these are the load, consumption and generation of the observation window (day, week…)
so you need to provide that info.
I don’t get total grid or battery info and the only total is for solar so I have to create integration sensors to get the total values. I used the total solar but can’t recall an issue with that and decided to create a total solar as well.

You have to add customisation to these sensors otherwsie they won’t appear in the dashboard.
This how it looks like

Hi,
Thanks for the thread, I’ve been sat trying to modify and recreate it as I’ve got 2 inverters, one Solax which appears to be the same as your ‘X1H’ to control my battery and the other a Sofar branded one that takes the solar. I think I’ve replaced the Solax X1a info with the correct Sofar data to pull it all together but I’m having some issues configuring it all in the energy dashboard. I appreciate this is a 9 month old thread but if you’re still about, any chance I can ask a few questions?

Thanks

Yes, saw your message today :pensive:

4

In the energy section when i try to add Solar Panel’s using the above code/config why does it not show up the sensors for me to select?

5

ok so i got the sensor showing total_solar as i had duplicate entries.

But now im showing

6

Check in the development tool, what is the value being returned. To me it looks like the unit is not correct

If it’s any help for anyone, below is the code that I’ve got running on my system at the moment based on the original code from @ausfas. It’s working ok for the Energy Dashboard but I’ve also ended up setting up a second dashboard using the 'tesla-style card" as I’ve found that the energy dashboard only tends to be able to show a daily cumulative position whereas the tesla-style card is better at showing the “live” position.
The code below is also what I’m using based on two different inverter brands. It’s definitely not optimised and there are a couple of parts that probably do the same thing but it;s working well enough at present.
