Ripple Energy in Home Assistant (Tutorial)
Are you a Ripple Energy investor and also a Home Assistant user? This tutorial will walk you through the process of extracting your Ripple Energy wind farm or solar farm data from their API to use in Home Assistant. I'll also show you how to create an example card to display the data and how to add your farm's energy and earnings to the Energy Dashboard. Full article here: https://www.speaktothegeek.co.uk/2024...
Note: when adding your energy sensors to the energy dashboard, make sure to add them to both the return-to-grid AND solar production sections. This ensures that your Home Demand is calculated correctly.
