What your solar panels are making right now, what the house is using, what is going to or coming from the grid, and today's total.

What it shows

The power being generated this moment, in large type, then a short list: House (what you are using), Grid (importing or exporting, and how much), Battery if you have one, and Today (the energy made so far).

Add the card

Every card is added the same way. If you have done this before, skip ahead.

  1. On the dashboard, move to a card you want to replace. Press and hold the center of the remote's pad for about a second. The card dims and a Modify button appears on it.

  3. On the left, choose Energy, then move right and choose Solar. (You can also leave the list on All and scroll; cards are in alphabetical order inside each group.)
  4. There is nothing to choose. Theatrium looks through Home Assistant for the solar, grid and house power sensors your inverter provides and uses them.
  5. Finish with the Add to Dashboard button (on some cards it reads Add Solar). You return to the dashboard with the new card in place.
