Feature Request: Forced Export To GRID #88

Closed nraimo1 closed 12 months ago

nraimo1 commented 12 months ago

It seems this is possible with alpha ess for LOOP and other providers around the world its also possible if using the modbus is there a way to access this feature via the API and push the battery into exporting to the grid?

The integration I'm using is not based on modbus so I cannot comment about that. As for the official AlphaESS open API (which I am using) the AlphaESS team have stated that forced export to the grid is NOT a feature that the open api will support and that forced export as a feature is only available in a commercial api suitable for power generation companies.

Here's a short thread on the topic.
