Wrong numbers for home consumption (continued)

[benvanmierloo]

Hi,

it seems I have found an edge case linked to issue #231.

When feeding all power (Solar + Battery) to the grid, the Home calculation not correct. In the screenshot below you can see the situation. 4.67 kW is being fed into the grid. The battery supplies 2.62 kW and the Solar panels 2.38 kW. This means the Home consumption should be Solar + Battery discharge - Grid injection (2.38kW+2.62kW-4.67kW) = 330W instead of 2.62kW,

Did this work in version 0.1.3?
Because this seems like a very strange scenario.
Why would you be exporting to the grid while producing from the battery?

I am currently on the 'Tesla Energy Plan' AKA 'virtual power plant' and get paid at peak rates to dump the battery to the grid

ps I am in the UK and the plan is now obsolete, this is the new option on renewal https://octopus.energy/smart/flux/

Can you check if this file solves the issue?

The Console MUST log the following:

Otherwise, you don't have the file is not being used. Check the instructions in the readme for a manual install and clear the cache of your browser.

power-flow-card-plus.js.zip

Would love to get some feedback, so I now if the issue is fixed and can push the changes to the next version

[neildsb]

no probs will check tomorrow, I will only know if it's working if-

1. its sunny in the UK (the weather is looking good BTW) and
2. at 4pm BST...

I understand how to manually install, but, can I just copy the 'single' file (power-flow-card-plus.js) to the HACS dir that was created and reload....?

I just tested the card with the numbers and it is now working as intended, so I'll release this in the next version, so you don't need to install it manually anymore.

If you still want to install the card manually (yes, only the js file is enough. I just zipped it so I can share it here):

• Paste the js file directly in the www directory
• Change the resource of this card from the HACS path to local/power-flow-card-plus.js
  But, as I said, no need to do that since the new version will be available shortly

Just released the new version, which fixes this issue! 🥳
