Tracking your energy usage with the Energy Graph

Tracking your energy usage with the Energy Graph

The Energy Graph helps you understand how much energy you generate, use, and import/export over time.

  • Choose daily, weekly, or monthly views.

  • Coloured areas above the axis show discharge, export, generation, or load.

  • Areas below the axis show charging or imports.

  • The blue line represents your battery’s state of charge.

Troubleshooting:

  • Short gaps in the data usually mean a temporary internet issue.

  • For precise billing, always use your supplier’s official meter.

When to Contact Support:

If data gaps are frequent or entire graphs are missing.
