13 Visualization of the energy management
SMA Solar Technology AG
Operating manual 93HM-20-BE-en-19
A two-part diagram displays how the loads in your system have been supplied and how your PV energy has been
used:
• The upper half of the diagram shows the total consumption of your system in the selected period.
It is precisely broken down from which sources your system was supplied with energy (PV system, battery-storage
system or utility grid).
• The lower half of the diagram shows when and how much electrical PV energy has been generated and how it
was used (direct consumption, charging of a battery-storage system or utility grid feed-in).
The data on this page are only fully displayed if both a feed-in meter and grid-supply meter are connected.
The additionally required PV generation data will be determined either directly by the connected SMA inverters or
can be captured via an additional PV production meter in PV systems with SunnyHomeManager. If a DC-
coupled storage system is used (e.g. SunnyBoySmartEnergy), the PV production data must always be read out
directly from the device, otherwise no differentiation between direct consumption and battery charging or
discharging is possible.
Via Tabs you can select the period which is to be displayed in the view (current / day / month / year / total).
