Help for a beginner getting solar generation from Fronius Inverter

Configuration

Total dialy consumed. Thanks

Hi Paul,
I am using your configuration for my Fronius inverter. Looks like something is wrong in my config as I get just “0” in the Lovelace view. Looks like you are using the sun.sun variabel for the script. I don’t understand the reason for using this. That would mean that after sunset I will always see jsut “0” in the result, is that correct?
Thanks a lot

Been a while since i have played with hass, as i am building a larger homelab with hass in it. If i remember correctly this was used to overcome the error report when the solar wasn’t producing. Instead, giving you a reading of 0.

This was well hidden. I came to the same conclusion the hard way though :-).
Two calls is now enough, on for the ‘CommonInverterData’ and one for some nice to have values in the ‘MinMaxInverterData’ as well.

Great idea, but the unit of measures and the divisions factors are wrong :slight_smile:
That’s the correct one:

sensor:
  - platform: rest
    resource: http://192.168.1.26/solar_api/v1/GetInverterRealtimeData.cgi?Scope=Device&DeviceId=1&DataCollection=CommonInverterData

    name: "Potenza Attuale"
    value_template: >-
      {% if is_state('sun.sun', 'above_horizon') %}
        {{ (value_json.Body.Data.PAC.Value /1000 | float)|round(2) }}
      {% else %}
        Offline
      {% endif %}
    unit_of_measurement: 'KW'
    force_update: true
  - platform: rest

      {% else %}

      {% endif %}
    unit_of_measurement: 'KWh'
    force_update: true

        {{ (value_json.Body.Data.YEAR_ENERGY.Value /1000 | float / 1000)|round(2) }}
      {% else %}
        Offline
      {% endif %}
    unit_of_measurement: 'MWh'
    force_update: true

Do you know how can I get ?

  • Daily Energy Sent to Newtork (KWh)
  • Daily Energy Get from the Network (KWh)
  • Daily consumed Energy (KWh)
