# Growatt

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.

### Supported devices

We support the following Growatt devices:

* **40KTL3-X**: three-phase string inverter
* **60KTL3 LV**: three-phase low-voltage string inverter
* **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](/getting-started/adding-and-verifying-devices/rs485-to-modbus-tcp-adapters/ep-e300.md)) before adding the device. The converter makes the inverter accessible over the network so that the EMS can communicate with it.
