Thanks @IggyP and @Sc00bs. After a lot of back and forth, I got the code loaded and the device connected to the inverter. At the moment I'm figuring out which port to use on the Deye 8kw but I think its somewhere in this thread. Thanks again for your help.

Your graph is displaying the data using your local time SAST (GMT+2) and the exported CSV is in UTC (GMT+0) timezone. It is common for data to be stored in UTC and your user interface to display in local time.

No problem @IggyP glad you got it sorted, have been there lol 🙂 

Hi Slipx, 
Thanks you very much! I changed the settings in ESP Home and now it is working perfectly.
Think I'll have some additional questions later on regarding changing the layout of dashboard, like how to get load shedding removed without breaking the whole dashboard and so on. I'm not that good in programming layout.
 
Regards
Iggy

@IggyP You can modify your ESP home config:
  - platform: modbus_controller            # 672 PV1 Power     modbus_controller_id: sunsynk     name: "${friendly_name} PV1 Power"     id: sunsynk_esphome_pv1_power     register_type: holding     address: 672     unit_of_measurement: "W"     accuracy_decimals: 0     device_class: power     state_class: measurement filters:       - multiply: 10 - platform: modbus_controller # 673 PV2 Power modbus_controller_id: sunsynk name: "${friendly_name} PV2 Power" id: sunsynk_esphome_pv2_power register_type: holding address: 673 unit_of_measurement: "W" accuracy_decimals: 0 device_class: power state_class: measurement value_type: U_WORD filters:       - multiply: 10  

If it’s consistently out by a factor of 10 then that’s a quick fix.

Yup - the dev of that plugin got irritated by all the stupid requests made by some.
Anyway, someone else forked (https://github.com/BJReplay/ha-solcast-solar) it so you can remove the plugin and then follow the steps below.
(All API settings and entities should still be there and no other changes required from you side)
Manually in HACS
Follow the link here
Use the custom repo link https://github.com/BJReplay/ha-solcast-solar
Select the category type integration
Then once it's there (still in HACS) click the INSTALL button
Then go to the HA Devices and Services and add a new Solcast Integration

Just installed new HA update and got message that solcast repository was removed:

Thanks for quick reply Muttley, 
will have a closer look to this.

Hi Muttley, 
This is my current config looks quite similar to yours I would say:
solar:
  mppts: 2
  show_daily: true
  colour: '#F4C430'
  animation_speed: 9
  max_power: 10350
  pv1_name: NG Main
  pv2_name: Zwinger
  display_mode: 2
  auto_scale: true
  pv1_max_power: 8100
  pv2_max_power: 2250

Hi Killaz1980
I had the same issue as I builded the first time. Did alot of things to get it solved but nothing helped.
The only thing what was solving my problem was to add the device in a different way to home assistant.
Step 1: I clicked continue instead of open ESPHome web
Step 2: added a name and clicked next
Step 3:  chosed the first device type in the list: ESP32
Step 4: clicked Install
Device was build sucessfully.
Step 6: adjusted the code like in the video description saved it and installed the new config
Hope this will do the trick for you as well.
