SolarEdge 2 MQTT Service
SolarEdge2MQTT reads power data from a SolarEdge inverter over Modbus TCP and publishes it to an MQTT broker. It is built for home automation: real-time power flow, battery state, grid import and export, and meter readings, all as MQTT topics that Home Assistant can discover on its own.
Beyond the inverter itself, the service can log in to your SolarEdge monitoring account to read module-level production and control an EV charger, keep a local history in a SQLite file, and forecast tomorrow's production from that history and live weather data.

🚀 Quick Start
pip install -U solaredge2mqtt
# Writes example config files into ./config/ and exits
solaredge2mqtt
Fill in the inverter address and your MQTT broker in config/configuration.yml, put the broker
password in config/secrets.yml, and start it again.
Or with Docker:
mkdir -p config
docker run -d --name solaredge2mqtt \
-v $(pwd)/config:/app/config \
-e "TZ=Europe/Berlin" \
--restart unless-stopped \
