you have to think more like an “EnergySystem” and not like a consumer.
For the System is just the Grid relevant, so all the stearing/controlling is coming from that point of view.
In a “normal” house you will never measure the Consumption. You always have a meter at the grid so you always just get the information of the grid (yes you can set up additional measurments, coming to this later).
The simulation just simulates some parts of the energysystem BUT does not really interact like in the reality. So for example MORE PV in reality would cause MORE Grid selling (because the consumption does not change so much). But in simulation the “simulated Grid” does not know when you started the PV-Simulation and does not interact, so the result is not really “like in Reality”
And Stefan is right, the consumption will always be calculated. So suddenly more pv would cause more Consumption in Simulation and not more Grid-Sell.
gut here is also an “old” aproach, but im not sure if it is still working, but it is a good overview of the ‘simulators’
perhaps the second point is working there.
If you have mor meters, the will be summed in the graph but you also have detailes historic data and you have widgets where you see the actual amount of meter.
looks like that
