Multiplus 2 GX, 3.60 Release, DESS price forecast 11.06. Tibber Germany looks like this, bug?
I’ve checked your DESS settings, you have set the Price-Interval to 15 Minutes.
Tibber is not yet doing that, so it seems like all the prices of today and tomorrow (48 x 60 min) are squeezed into “today” and nothing left for tomorrow.
Change that setting to 60 min intervals and see, if that resolves the issue.
I’ve been observing this same phenomenon for some time now, especially on weekends. I’ve always assumed that the VRM developers are working on a longer-term forecasting function. As soon as the actual data on the Abitur (high school graduation) is available, these linear forecasts disappear.
@Barbara
mentioned some time ago that they are doing tests on this topic
Great, thanks, that solved it.
Thought that 15 min pricing is now available, but you are right, has been postponed to september.
Source? DE only or NL too?
Not sure:
After changing the setting to 60 min yesterday, everything was fine. Now, with still 60, i see again a flat curve in tomorrows price graph.
Ideas?
Sorry, 30 Min later now ok.

Hi @dognose , there has to be some kind of bug, now, at 12:12, i can see again a flat curve in prices for tomorrow. Screenshot:
EPEX prices for the next day are officially announced at 12:40 PM CET, but sometimes delayed upto 16:00 or even later.
I have the same, but I never payed attention what is displayed there BEFORE prices are officially published:
Victron is trying to extend the forecast period by providing an estimated price for the next few days and is experimenting with this on a small scale. So far, the forecasts only run as long as prices are available via the API. According to my information, these short-term prices are part of the experiment. As soon as the regular prices are published, these fictitious prices are immediately replaced. I’ve been observing this for several months.
I activated DESS last year a couple of months and deactivated it then, i never saw this before. Now, after reactivation, it seems like this is current behavior.
I think this affects calculation of bat/grid usage immediately, after the flat curve appears in the portal. Not good… what do you think?
Hi @dognose i checked the behavior today, it is how i thought, after the flat/wrong curve appears, DESS is calculating bat/grid etc usage based on that. This makes no sense.
What is also happening:
Target SOC 100, but discharging to grid, with -300 Watt grid due to high PV AC.
Not good.
@dognose When changing from 60 to 15 Min Interval, it looks much better. Flat changes to curved chart.
Where can I enlist (please pretty please, sugar on top!)
