PVOutput upload

This integration provides data that can be used to upload system stats to pvoutput.org.

Open your Home Assistant configuration.yaml file and add the following:

shell_command:
  pvoutputcurl: >
    curl -d "d={{now().strftime("%Y%m%d")}}"
         -d "t={{now().strftime("%H:%M")}}"
         -d "v1={{ (states('sensor.pv_energy_today') | float * 1000)  | int }}"
         -d "v2={{ states('sensor.pv_power') }}"
         -d "v6={{ states('sensor.grid_voltage') }}"
         -H "X-Pvoutput-SystemId: <system-id>"
         -H "X-Pvoutput-Apikey: <api-key>"
         https://pvoutput.org/service/r2/addstatus.jsp

In the above snippet, you need to replace <system-id> and api-key with values from your own PVOutput system. These can be string literals or something more clever such as helper values set via the web UI. Once saved, you'll need to restart Home Assistant.

Configure an automation as follows:

  • Trigger: Time pattern with minutes set to /5, /10 or /15 to match your PVOutput expected reporting interval. Note that since the inverter only reports energy with 0.1kWh precision, longer intervals tend to work better, especially in overcast conditions when total energy may not increment over a short period.
  • Conditions: Optionally, configure a State condition for the Sun entity with a value above_horizon. This trims off uninteresting parts of the day in your PVOutput logs and charts.
  • Action: Set this to "Call service" and find "Shell Command: pvoutputcurl".
