Hello.
Not sure if this should be here or somewhere else. I am having an issue with solar consumption.
I am using this from hacs and I am on version 20021.9.6.
I am having an issue where solar consumption is not working but everything else looks to be correct.
The only solar consumption I have is when it is importing from the grid at the same time. Unsure how to fix this issue.
Here is a pic so you can see what I mean.

You have probably mixed up entities configured for the energy dashboard. Look at your energy distribution graphic - it shows you exported more than you produced.
I have not tried the fronius custom component myself, but I’d be intrested on why you prefer it over the core component.

Don’t think so.
Was using it just because that’s what I was using no other reason. I just swapped over to the core component. Do you know what sensors need to go where for it? It is not immediately clear to me.

I do. Fronius power meter (and inverter) - help with configuration - #4 by farmio
The custom component uses the exact same api endpoints so there will not be much difference other the names of the entities.
The reason I asked was that I recently rewrote the core integration and would like to know what drove people away from it previously. (The new one isn’t live yet - see Rewrite Fronius integration - add config_flow, unique_ids, devices by farmio · Pull Request #56166 · home-assistant/core · GitHub )

The only reason when first looking into how to add my system, that was what kept showing up and that’s the way I went and hadn’t changed.
Just changed now so see how it goes over the next few days.
I see what your saying but the export amount is correct. Production for that day was 60.38kWh and that is the correct export amount.

and yet is shows 30,3 kWh in your picture so I guess the production entity is wrong.
