Our EMS supports integration with PV inverters and data loggers from Growatt. Growatt is a global manufacturer of solar inverters for residential, commercial, and industrial installations.
The integration enables centralized monitoring and control of Growatt production data through our EMS platform.
ShineMaster: data logger for aggregating and exposing inverter data
EMS functionality
With the current integration, our EMS enables:
Monitoring of PV production data
Active power curtailment where supported
Integration of PV production into broader energy management strategies
Add a Growatt inverter to the EMS
The connection method depends on how the inverter communicates:
Modbus TCP (ShineMaster present)
If the inverter is connected via Modbus TCP, a ShineMaster data logger is present in the installation. In this case, add the device to the EMS using the ShineMaster adapter option in the device wizard.
RS485
If the inverter communicates via RS485, you will need to use an RS485-to-TCP converter (such as the EP E300) before adding the device. The converter makes the inverter accessible over the network so that the EMS can communicate with it.
