Ok, DESS did it’s job the whole day. until the remote database went complete, poef. Why should DESS be depended on a remote database when it already has all the dynamic pricing and the graphs showing it would sell. And then just stops! if it has the data (or maybe could have the data?) and also al…

True. I hate it when it decide to skip selling in the evening and keep the power for the next morning because it is 1 cent more benificial. This power needs to be kept at 98-99% and peak shaving (witch only works above minimum charge) just cost 2 kWh extra to keep working during that night. This i…

If the sell price is actual higher the next morning, it would be intended behavior. ( currently the Dutch 20:00 price was way higher than the tomorrow morning price ) My current issue is that because of the database, my system which was already showing all the data including the next day completely…

Have the same issue. Inverters stopped at the dynamic peek price (trade mode), now turned off DESS. And now I get following errors and messages: [image]

[image] VRM Forecast data doubled(?) DIY Hi all, Sorry for the continued issues. We’re working hard to resolve this. In short, the underlying database is having a lot of performance issues. Our top priority is making sure that all incoming data is reliably st…

So just to be complete, I’m running the latest stable in trade mode. If my dashboard on the lower half (the DESS part) was already showing the schedule and the next day prices, it should have followed that!? ( and it showed that data earlier in the day ) maybe all those systems doing all those not n…

Ik ben bezig met het opzetten van EMHASS Energy Management for Home Assistant. Is wel een ingewikkeld klusje maar werk een stuk beter (lineare optimalisatie) en meer configureerbaar. Ik ben dan niet meer afhankelijk van de Vicron databases voor het functioneren van DESS. Je hebt wel een API key nodi…

That clears up some stuff, thanks. Also seen the VRM outages and slowness - a central thread post. Keep up the good work and just throw more memory at it :smiley:

Een fallback als ESS door zijn 12 uur cache heen is zou intresant zijn. Op dit moment heb ik al prijsdata in nodeRED want heb daar een simpel script welke mijn minimal Batt unless gridd failure instelt binnen een marge en 10% extra kan toe wijzen als de stroomprijs onder de 0cent komt.

DESS is helemaal van het padje. De prijs is nu (20.00 12-08) 35ct per kw, accu 75% soc en hij is aan het laden. Dit is niet acceptabel. Heb dess uitgeschakeld en de grid setpoint op -12000 gezet. Ik ga snel EMHASS op Home Assistant configureren.

Same here, grid setpoint op -15000 voor de komende 3 uur. Daarna maar weer eens terug schakelen naar DESS ipv ESS.

Database has issues and DESS decides just not to sell during peak hours!
