On rainy days I monitor the daily battery charge in kWh, if by 12 I have not reached a certain minium amount I change my setting to become "priority Battery" that means, my inverter will run from the grid (till it reaches the time of use SOC) en every little bit of sunshine charges my battery. Those days I might only get to 70% battery but I am at least not charging from the grid. Every evening an automation changes my automation back to "priority load".
That way I am giving Eskom the least amount of business , and still I do not change a thing, everything happens automatically.
Combining the Time of Use with automations can improve the effectiveness of you solar and save you money in the long run.

Hello Friends
I found a very interesting addition to HA. Can be installed as an add-on for Home Assistant OS and supervised, Docker in standalone mode or Legacy method using a Python virtual environment

EMHASS (Energy Management for Home Assistant) is an optimization tool designed for residential households. The package uses a Linear Programming approach to optimize energy usage while considering factors such as electricity prices, power generation from solar panels, and energy storage from batteries. EMHASS provides a high degree of configurability, making it easy to integrate with Home Assistant and other smart home systems. Whether you have solar panels, energy storage, or just a controllable load, EMHASS can provide an optimized daily schedule for your devices, allowing you to save money and minimize your environmental impact.
EMHASS is not easy to run, but it can be very useful in energy management. I invite you to discuss
 

Ditto from my side for an 8.8kW Sunsynk 
Thanks to all the bright folk on this channel who posted all the info/tips/code/photos etc.  Also to the Solar Intergrations YouTube channel. 

I just want to add, after numerous failed attempts and frustrating hours, I finally got my 5kw Sunsynk in HomeAssistant via a ESP32. 

There has been a new release V2.2
Power flow plugin had many updates that were not backwards compatible. Updated to the latest V1.93 Fixed some charting issues. (graphs not rendering correctly). Added a new graph to show power consumption split per day. Added Graph Headings (very confusing if you do not understand what you are looking at) Minor rename of certain entities to make them split phase compatible Preparing to support master/slave configurations (to be added in the next release)  
I made a video about installing the DeyeSolarDesktop into your existing home assistant setup

If you are new to Home Assistant you could hopefully learn a couple of tips and tricks along the way
 

Hi. The registers for the 3 phase are different so it wont work without some modification. There is an example to get you started on the github but I have not tested this
