I've added 2 PV systems. The energy I produce I use partly myself.
e.g. when I use 1000 W and produce 500 W, I only import 500 W from grid.
When i produce 1400 W, I export 400 W in this case.
Home Assistant shows me, that I export all of the enery so my self-consumed and self-sufficient grade is 0 %.
I measure the energy on different devices.
I've in the apartment a inductive smart meter, in the cellar different smart plugs for washing machine, dryer, extra fridge and others. These are all independet consumers.
The PV has its own "plug". But all these within one electricity meter.
So I use my energy myself first, rest gets exported.
And this is my sankey graph.
But if I change some settings for the PV in the energy dashboard, HA adds my PV as consumed energy to everthing else. Hope you guys understand my problem.
Want a better sankey chart and grade for self-usage. How would you achive this?
Your card shows that you produced .46 of solar, and exported .46 of energy. These numbers come directly from your sensors.
The only place export can come from is solar, so if you export exactly the same amount that you produced, the only possible explanation is that you exported all of your solar.
If you claim that you self consumed some of the solar, either your produced number is too low, or your export number is too high. Which one is it?
Produced is correct. But how to manage the export correctly?
I consume whats possible directly and the left over (if any) I export to the grid. But due to where I take my measurements (energy readings) it's not a closed system for HA. But it is, the energy is exported and imported immediately, as shown in my graphs.
I have to reduce my from-grid-energy by the amount procued by the PV. But I don't want to loose the details in the overview. Okay I would still have the details graph in the bottom, if the is no other way until now.
