Hi! This is my SunToPump automation. It sets your room thermostat according to available excess solar power, optimizing heat pump usage.
Useful when your heat pump doesn’t support direct power input control (“smart grid ready” or similar). Learns the power consumption of the heat pump in different conditions, in order to indirectly control the power input using the thermostat.
I’ve been using it successfully for some time with my Quatt heat pump (I’m curious to learn how it works with other heat pumps), so I went ahead and pushed it to github with some documentation. It’s a package and not a blueprint because AFAIK blueprints can’t include template sensors.
