Quick service for uploading data from your Goodwe inverter to PVOutput.org.

It grabs generation (W), load (W), inverter temperature and voltage (V). If you're a subscriber to PVOutput you can store state of charge of your battery too. The data is pulled via my pygoodwe library in the getDataPvOutput function.

Configuration

File in one of these places:

• ~/.goodwe2pvoutput.conf (Home dir)
• ./goodwe2pvoutput.conf (Current dir)
• /etc/goodwe2pvoutput.conf

Template: see goodwe2pvoutput.conf.example

Goodwe config

Determine the Station ID from the GOODWE site as follows. Open the Sems Portal. The Plant Status will reveal the Station ID in the URL. Example:

https://www.semsportal.com/powerstation/powerstatussnmin/11112222-aaaa-bbbb-cccc-ddddeeeeeffff

Then the Station ID is 11112222-aaaa-bbbb-cccc-ddddeeeeeffff.

PVOutput config

Get your API key and system ID from the account page on PVOutput

Running it

goodwe2pvoutput should do it for testing.

If you want to make it a systemd service:

• Download goodwe2pvoutput.service to /etc/systemd/system/
• Make sure the config file is at /etc/goodwe2pvoutput.conf
• Run sudo systemctl daemon-reload to load the file
• sudo systemctl status goodwe2pvoutput to check it looks sane
• sudo systemctl enable goodwe2pvoutput to enable it on boot
• sudo systemctl start goodwe2pvoutput to start it

Dependencies

• pygoodwe
• pvoutput
• schedule
