No discharge at night? - Githubissues

timdj commented 1 year ago

I have configured a simulated battery with 2 in and 2 out. However the battery won't discharge at night exactly at the time the second tariff starts

hif2k1 commented 1 year ago

Yes seems its not picking up the second tarrif. Can you get more info by running it in debug mode and posting the log? Just add this to your config file: logger:

default: critical logs: custom_components.battery_sim: debug

Then run it for the period when the problem is happening and then post then log.

Thanks

@hif2k1 : It seems like the second sensor isn’t stored in the configuration. I’ve added _LOGGER.debug(config and this was the output of the log. I\ve setup two batteries (Powerwall and Custom Battery).

Because it checks for len(second import or export) > 6 it fails to the set the second one, because it doesn’t exists in the config.

I am having the exact same issue with 2 tariffs, no discharging during 2nd tariff (23:00 - 07:00), Logging doesn't seem to show anything strange, but doesn't do anything between tariff changes. Here is a small part of the log:

I had a similar issue, although mine was more noticeable: I had no charge during the day (my "first" tarif was the night tarif). Based on the information in this issue, I went ahead and created 2 helpers:

Consumption (total) Helper type: "Combine the state of several sensors" Statistic characteristic: "Sum" Entities: Consumption (tarif 1) Consumption (tarif 2)
Production (total) Helper type: "Combine the state of several sensors" Statistic characteristic: "Sum" Entities: Production (tarif 1) Production (tarif 2)

Next I went ahead and edited my /config/.Storage/core.config_entries file:

find "domain": "battery_sim", which resulted for me in this snippet:
Next I scrolled down to "import_sensor": and replaced the entity id there by the consumption (total) helper's id.
Scroll down again to "export_sensor": and replace that entity id by the production (total) helper's id.
Repeat for any other batery_sim entries you may have created.
Save the file
Restart home assistant

After the restart all of my simulated batteries started charging and I finally get my simulated charts filled in:

I think this proves that indeed the issue reported here also is my problem.

I've made some changes and it seems to be working. I'll update the PR to make it so it is working again.

hif2k1 commented 1 year ago

Thanks to @Daandamhuis hopefully going to have this resolved shortly. @rrozema like that energy distribution card what did you use for that?

rrozema commented 1 year ago

It's the sankey chart card, available through HACS: https://github.com/MindFreeze/ha-sankey-chart. I use that sankey in combination with Energy Period Selector Plus: https://github.com/flixlix/energy-period-selector-plus.

This combi enables me to create a single page in HA that easily compares the situation for "no battery" (my actual measurements) with multiple variations of simulated batteries over any selectable time frame: day, week, month, year or custom.

Thanks, will have a look at the sankey charts. I have released an update now (v1.2.0) which should hopefully fix this day/night meter issue (thanks to @Daandamhuis). Let me know if this has resolved the problem.

hif2k1 commented 1 year ago

Hopefully this is resolved with the update. Let me know if not.
