[APP][Pro] Power by the Hour: Insights per hour, day, month and year

Do you mean you do not see solar forecaster as a device, or do you mean you do not see your solar panels when pairing?

I don’t see solar forecaster as a device.

You are not using the latest PbtH test version and/or Homey stable version.

Is it possible that flow set_tariff_power got broken on this ?

I hope not
 :face_with_peeking_eye:

I am using pbth 8.7.5 and my homey is running 13.0.0 and says it is up to date. My homey app version is 9.8.0.1937. Which versions should i be on?

;-(

I just tried on my ‘old’ HP2019, and indeed solar is missing there.

:distorted_face::person_shrugging:

I have no clue why
.

Also on HP23:

The solar driver is hidden as ‘deprecated’. I have contacted Athom to figure out why that is happening.

Hi, 9 days ago my homey pro (early 2019) automotic updated to version 8.7.2 (experimental)

I see it working fine with solar, but no updates since then.

Forced install 8.7.5 in app store didn’t work either. Timeout.

I just re-installed 8.7.5 on my HP2019 via app store. And now the solar driver DOES magically appear :zany_face:

Just try to re-install again from the app store: https://homey.app/a/com.gruijter.powerhour/test/

Reinstallation worked for me as well, including the missing action
interesting.

Homey restarting did the trick.

Several updates of apps.

I did that yesterday without any luck (and that was also the case on previous testversions which i did install). Today the installation ‘introduced’ solar forecaster. So ready to test this. Thanks for checking.

@Gruijter Little idea. For the solar graph. Hold the maximum power of the PV installation on the vertical axis. So if the maximum output of the PV is 2500W. For example, set the maximum value of the graph to 3000W. This gives a better visual representation of the expected yield. Small hump in cloud cover. Big hump in sunny weather. Now the graph is being adjusted to the expected yield.

I like it! It is working, I was wondering how you do the calculations, because I use now this website for this feature (there it is asking for the orientation, the angle of inclination and the amount of panels):

It is self-learning. I wanted to create a zero-config solar forecaster. So I spent A LOT of time tweaking my algorithm for the past few months :disguised_face:.

An insignificant, but annoying problem: I have a flow that gives me the day ahead prices as a notification when the prices are published (the pic). The flow works as it supposed to work, but every day at 00.00 hours, the flow also runs and pushes a notification with “null” values. I’m suspecting that there is something wrong with the card, since it runs everyday at 00.00.

@Gruijter Solar: In a flow i triggered not learning because prices were netto-negative and i “dimmed” the solar-panels to self-consumption. But after a few seconds it automatic turned “Begrenzing actief” back to NO again.

Why?
