|
The `solax` integration connects Home Assistant to Solax solar power inverters. Solax inverters may be connected to a home Wi-Fi network and expose a REST API. This integration retrieves information such as photovoltaic power production, battery levels and power, and how much power is being fed back into the grid.

### Optional template sensor
|
|
|
|
If you would like to convert the values from multiple panels or view the total power the house is using, you can use the [template platform](/integrations/template).
|
|
|
|
{% raw %}
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry for template platform
|
|
template:
|
|
- sensor
|
|
- name: Total PV power
|
|
unit_of_measurement: "W"
|
|
state: "{{ (states('sensor.pv1_power') | float(default=0)) + (states('sensor.pv2_power') | float(default=0)) }}"
|
|
- name: Load power
|
|
unit_of_measurement: "W"
|
|
state: "{{ (states('sensor.power_now') | float(default=0)) - (states('sensor.exported_power') | float(default=0)) }}"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% endraw %}
|
|
|
|
### Configuring the Energy Dashboard
|
|
|
|
There are generally at least 3 sensors from your inverter that you need to configure in the energy dashboard:
|
|
|
|
- The consumption sensor (in kWh) for the **Grid Consumption**.
|
|
- The feed-in sensor (in kWh) for the **Return to grid**, for example, the solar panel energy you do not consume and return to the grid instead.
|
|
- The on-grid yield sensor (in kWh) for the **Solar production**.
