Shows the current solar production ("PV") of a SolarEdge system on an AWTRIX NG display. Tested with a SolarEdge SE10K-RWB48.
What it shows
- A small sun on the left (drawn directly, no icon file needed)
- Current PV power on the right, in Watts or kW
- Colour-coded by power level: grey (0 W) → orange → yellow → light green → deep green (high power)
- Red status pixel in the bottom-right corner if the last data is older than ~2400 ticks
Data source
Uses the SolarEdge Monitoring API, specifically the currentPowerFlow.json endpoint. It reads the PV field rather than the net value at the grid connection point (overview.currentPower) — this keeps the value accurate even on systems with a battery.
Note: SolarEdge's cloud only refreshes this data every few minutes up to ~15 minutes. The value can lag a bit behind the SolarEdge app — that's a limitation of the public API, not a bug in the script.
Setup
- Log in to the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal
- Admin (gear icon) → Site Access → Access Control → API Access
- Activate API access, copy the key
- Enter your Site ID (found in the portal URL) and API key in the script (
siteId,apiKeyininit())
Required icons
None — the sun is drawn directly as pixels.
Known limitations
- Cloud data can be up to ~15 min old
- Shows PV production only, not consumption or grid draw (would need to also read
LOAD/GRID)
