Time not correct in forecast

[susquach]

Hello,

I have setup my EVCC in Docker Desktop for Windows and after putting all my Time of use parameters in, the time appearing in the forecast seems to show in UTC (Europe/Berlin along with the tarrif and time usage don't match up. When looking at the battery and charge graph the time looks current. I am based in Australia/Brisbane and have confirmed that the timezone settings on my machine, browser and the docker container have been set correctly.

Looking through log the timestamp on each of the entries corresponds to UTC. Screenshots are provided, note that when I look at the image under layers it is showing the Timezone as Europe/Berlin

A look through the forum could see others have mentioned similar issues however I was unable to find a fix reported within their query, Please let me know what further information you require and I can provide the relevant information.

Thanks,
Alex

The evcc image bakes in ENV TZ=Europe/Berlin in its Dockerfile, and that is what you are seeing under the image layers. The container does not pick up the Windows or Docker Desktop timezone, so the forecast and tariff slots are computed in Berlin time while your browser renders the live graphs in local time.

Override it in your compose file (or docker run -e):

services:
  evcc:
    image: evcc/evcc:latest
    environment:
      - TZ=Australia/Brisbane

Then docker compose up -d --force-recreate. The log timestamps and the forecast times should both switch to Brisbane after that.
