During the downtime of my Sofar inverter, this integration output 0 (zero) as a total amount of kWhw produced. This makes the graphs detailed graph and the info in the Energy dashboard incorrect. Is there a way to keep the correct values when the inverter is offline? Schermafbeelding 2022-04-04 113343

Yes, the inverter enter in standby mode at night, and it seems not to measure the CT grid total power (load comsumption) so the energy panel is not showing complete values. I think that there is a command to force the inverter not to enter in standby but in my case the electronics of the inverter draws a lot of power (when producing 4500w solar the inverter only gives 4300W) so I'm not sure that is a good idea, even there is some period at the end of the day that the inverter draws power from grid some time before enter in standby.
