Try posting your configuration maybe we can figure it out.
Hi All,
I am no doubt missing something really simple here but I am not getting any solar generation data displaying on the card - it is always 0. I would really appreciate some help.
My card is configured as follows:
type: custom:tesla-style-solar-power-card
house_entity: sensor.powerwall_load_now
grid_entity: sensor.tesla_card_grid_consumption
battery_entity: sensor.tesla_card_battery_consumption
generation_to_grid_entity: sensor.tesla_card_grid_feed_in
generation_to_house_entity: sensor.tesla_card_solar_consumption
generation_to_battery_entity: sensor.tesla_card_battery_charging_inside
battery_to_house_entity: sensor.tesla_card_battery_consumption
grid_to_house_entity: sensor.tesla_card_grid_consumption
battery_extra_entity: sensor.powerwall_charge
and my template sensors are;
template:
- sensor:
- name: "Tesla Card Grid Consumption"
unique_id: 'tesla_card_grid_consumption'
state: "{{ states('sensor.powerwall_site_now') | float | max(0) | round(1) }}"
device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW
- name: "Tesla Card Grid Feed In"
unique_id: 'tesla_card_grid_feed_in'

device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW

unique_id: 'tesla_card_solar_consumption'
state: "{{ ((states('sensor.powerwall_solar_now') | float) - (states('sensor.tesla_card_grid_feed_in') | float ) - (states('sensor.tesla_card_battery_charging_inside') | float) ) | round(1) }}"
device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW
- name: "Tesla Card Battery Consumption"
unique_id: 'tesla_card_battery_consumption'
state: "{{ states('sensor.powerwall_battery_now') | float | max(0) | round(1) }}"
device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW

unique_id: 'tesla_card_battery_charging_inside'
state: "{{ states('sensor.powerwall_battery_now') | float | min(0) | abs | round(1) }}"
device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW```
I am getting this error in my logs however;
* Template warning: 'float' got invalid input 'unavailable' when rendering template '{{ states('sensor.powerwall_site_now') | float | max(0) | round(1) }}' but no default was specified. Currently 'float' will return '0', however this template will fail to render in Home Assistant core 2021.12

Thanks in advance!
JDFBAre there values listed under your Tesla Powerwall entities? (in devices)
Yeah it seems your powerwall is either not connected yet to home assistant or at least not with that name
Thanks for the reply - All connected and data is correctly displaying for each sensor…`I just can’t work it out!
cheers.
On your home assistant go to: /developer-tools/state when you have some sun and do a screenshot of the result when you type in the entity ‘sensor.powerwall_solar_now’ you should get a result. Otherwise you do have a powerwall installed correctly but the sensor name is not preceded by powerwall but by something else. At least it seems like that from the error. You can find your entities there and you might just need to change the name of powerwall to whatever it is called on your installation. This is an error I have not seen yet though.
Thanks for the reply.
State appears correct which is why I am so confused!
Hello
Can someone share the templates (or full config) to integrate de new Fronius oficial integration?
Thanks!
I have a little challange, the animations and figures do not work when exporting the battery to the grid; hope this helps?
I have the stock templates, I think basically it struggles with battery to grid concept -
template:

device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW - name: “Tesla Card Solar Consumption”

state: “{{ ((states(‘sensor.powerwall_solar_now’) | float) - (states(‘sensor.tesla_card_grid_feed_in’) | float ) - (states(‘sensor.tesla_card_battery_charging_inside’) | float) ) | round(1) }}”
device_class: power
unit_of_measurement: kW - name: “Tesla Card Battery Consumption”
unique_id: ‘tesla_card_battery_consumption’

state: “{{ states(‘sensor.powerwall_battery_now’) | float | min(0) | abs | round(1) }}”
device_class: power

- name: “Tesla Card Grid Consumption”
I need to have a ‘tesla_card_battery_to_grid’ entity, any help would be appreciated, many thanks
Hi,
@reptilex Thanks for making this card.
I think I finally have it setup the way I want it.
I have an Enphase Envoy and lets just say it wasn’t exactly plug and play getting this card to work with the envoy sensors.
For some reason I had to create a new sensor which i called “Consumption Net” that subtracts the grid import power from the current_power_consumption so it can be used as the “generation_to_house_entity”.
As a side note, the enphase envoy does not provide ‘grid import power’ sensors.
I needed to create that as well.
Things I had to add in the configuration.yaml do to get it looking like this:
template:
- sensor:
name: Grid Import Power
state_class: measurement
icon: mdi:transmission-tower
unit_of_measurement: W
device_class: power
state: >
{{ [0,
states('sensor.envoy_SERIALNUMBER_current_power_consumption') | int -
states('sensor.envoy_SERIALNUMBER_current_power_production') | int ]
| max }}
- sensor:
name: Power Wheel House Consumption Net
state_class: measurement
icon: mdi:transmission-tower
unit_of_measurement: W
device_class: power
state : >
{{ states('sensor.envoy_SERIALNUMBER_current_power_consumption') | int -
states('sensor.grid_import_power') | int }}
- sensor:
name: Power Wheel Energy Production
state_class: measurement
icon: mdi:transmission-tower
unit_of_measurement: kWh
device_class: energy
state : >
{{ (states('sensor.envoy_SERIALNUMBER_today_s_energy_production') | int /
1000) | round(0) }}
- sensor:
name: Power Wheel Energy Consumption
state_class: measurement
icon: mdi:transmission-tower
unit_of_measurement: kWh
device_class: energy
state : >
{{ (states('sensor.envoy_SERIALNUMBER_today_s_energy_consumption') | int /

my figures all reverted to 0 as shown in this card with the 2022 core updates.
I had to remove the min an max from some of my value_templates to get the integration to work again
In the end I had to move min(0) and max(0) to the other side of float operation (LHS). You may also have to change float to read float(0)

Hi,
I’m trying to convert my power-wheel-card into this testla-style-solar-power-card. As it’s far more beautiful and matching the HA Energy dashboard.
I just have the actual solar production, the actual grid power consumption en the actual grid power production entities available.
Any idea how to convert them into the tesla-style-solar-power-card as I don’t succeed. Based on the 3 entities he should be able to calculate the house consumption I suppose (as the power-wheel-card does).
This is my config in power-wheel-card:
type: custom:power-wheel-card
title: Energievebruik
solar_power_entity: sensor.actuele_opbrengst_zonnepanelen_kw
grid_power_consumption_entity: sensor.power_consumption
grid_power_production_entity: sensor.power_production
power_decimals: 3
I am testing the following config:
type: custom:tesla-style-solar-power-card
name: Actueel energieverbruik
grid_to_house_entity: sensor.power_consumption
generation_entity: sensor.actuele_opbrengst_zonnepanelen_kw
generation_to_grid_entity: sensor.power_production
Many thanks
Edit:
Got it working. I added a new sensor generation_to_house which I calculate using a template: total generation sunpanels - grid power production
All working fine now! Great card! Thanks for all hard work!
I would be interested to see some more of what you did Greg, I’ve just moved from a 2021 version of core and hass to the latest (2022.3) and the my results are more like random numbers. I think I must have something seriously wrong…

These are working correctly
My Sensors, which were working OK until this update. I’ve moved the max(0) min(0) as shown in Greg’s post resulting in numbers rather than 0s but the numbers are wrong. For example discharge from battery to house was just showing as 8kWh when the Powerwall can only run at 5kWh and at the time the house was using less than 1kWh.

Sensor templates, please excuse the typo in the word consumption on one sensor. I have a complex setup here with separate solar systems ontop of what the powerwall is connected to, as I have 3 phase. Hopefully it can help

Thanks Gregory, Started comparing and already made a few improvements in my definitions which looks like I’ve fixed grid and house. More to do.
Can I ask, what is powerwall_battery_reverse?
Many thanks
Sure, it just swaps above zero for below,
Eg -5440w becomes 5440w or vice versa
Depending on the integration or calculation required, the opposite of the Tesla battery sensor reading sensor might be useful.
