Solar energy app compatible with Goodwe inverters

JonJon Member
edited April 2016 in Archive
The current Solar app developed by Diederik does not yet support Goodwe inverters. Although Goodwe does not have an official API, it appears possible to retract solar output data from Goodwe, see http://persistantillusion.blogspot.nl/2015/06/capturing-solar-generation-data-from.html as for getting data output from Goodwe inverters?

I tried it myself, filling in my station's ID in http://www.goodwe-power.com/Mobile/GetMyPowerStationById?stationID=XXXXXXXXXXX and I indeed got back my data, see below (yes not much €€€ earned since I had my panels installed last week ;)). Now how could this be used for a Homey app and who would be willing to build this? (I am not a developer myself)

  • I think existing app could be extended with Goodwe API (similar to existing PVOutput). I guess you are interested in "curpower" and "eday".
    It looks like  there is a way for pushing Goodwe data to pvoutput.org... https://brnrd.eu/misc/2016-03-13/goodwe-logging-to-pvoutput.html

    Yes, I found that too, but I do not see how this will automatically and continuously feed PVoutput... 
    Does anyone know? 
  • Someone having trouble with the app after update 0.9.1, it stopped working here. No information is comming in
