Supported functionality

Sensors

The integration provides one Plant device for each location (for example, Balcony, Garden, Home, Office) and one Overview (aggregation) device. It is recommended to disable the Overview device, as plants can be shared between accounts or temporarily added to your profile, which may lead to inaccurate data aggregation.

Plant and Overview have the following sensors:

  • Total power (W): Current power from your solar systems and batteries
  • Today energy (kWh): Total energy produced today
  • Lifetime energy (kWh): Total energy produced since installation

Plant also has other sensors:

  • PV power (W): Current power production from solar system
  • Load power (W): Current power used by your home, if there is a current clamp in your installation
  • Grid power (W): Current power load from grid (can be negative), if there is a current clamp in your installation

If a plant has batteries, it also has other sensors:

  • Battery power (W): Current discharging power, if negative, the batteries are charging
  • Battery state of charge (percentage): Current state of charge of the batteries

All sensors are updated every minute. If there is no current clamp and no battery in your application, then Total power = PV power = Load power, and Grid power = 0. If there are batteries, then:

  • Total power = PV power + Battery power
  • Load power = Total power + Grid power

Data updates

The integration polls data from the Hypontech Cloud every 60 seconds.
