EMS-ESP is an open-source firmware for the Espressif ESP32 microcontroller to communicate with EMS (Energy Management System) compatible equipment from manufacturers such as Bosch, Buderus, Nefit, Junkers, Worcester, Sieger, elm.leblanc and iVT.
It requires a small circuit to interface with the EMS bus which can be purchased from https://bbqkees-electronics.nl or custom built.
Key Features
