Tesla Solar Only

For Tesla Solar owners who don't have a Powerwall, to get a similar dashboard for their systems, Powerwall Dashboard can be installed in Tesla Cloud mode. This uses the Tesla Cloud API to grab power metrics and store them in InfluxDB for rendering by Grafana.

Screenshot (2)

Thanks to @Jot18 for the example dashboard screenshot.

Setup

Clone this repo on the host that will run the dashboard:

git clone https://github.com/jasonacox/Powerwall-Dashboard.git

Run the interactive setup script that will ask you for your setup details.

cd Powerwall-Dashboard
./setup.sh

Select option 2 (Tesla Cloud) to install the dashboard in Solar Only mode.

Powerwall Dashboard (v4.0.0) - SETUP
-----------------------------------------
Select configuration mode:

1 - Local Access (Powerwall 1, 2, or + using the Tesla Gateway on LAN) - Default
2 - Tesla Cloud  (Solar-only systems or Powerwalls without LAN access)

Next, you will then be asked for your Local timezone, and your Tesla Cloud login details. To find your timezone, see the second column in this table: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones

  • If you experience issues with your Tesla Cloud login details, re-run setup.sh to try again.
  • If you get docker errors during the setup, see the Docker Errors section.
  • For Windows 11 users, see the Windows 11 Instructions.

Follow the Grafana Setup instructions provided to complete the setup.

Migrating Beta Solar Only Installs

If you installed the Solar Only dashboard during beta testing, you can run the upgrade.sh script, instead of setup, to migrate your existing install from the placeholder location without losing data. A backup is still recommended.

Change directory to where the Powerwall Dashboard repo was cloned (not the tools/solar-only sub-directory), and run upgrade.sh. You do not need to manually pull changes from GitHub beforehand, as this will be handled by the upgrade script.

cd Powerwall-Dashboard
./upgrade.sh

The upgrade script should detect the existing solar-only installation, as indicated by the NOTE below. If it does not, you may need to remove the compose.env file in the Powerwall-Dashboard directory (not tools/solar-only), if it exists. This may exist due to attempting to install the dashboard as a Powerwall user previously by mistake.

Upgrade Powerwall-Dashboard from 2.10.0 to 4.0.0
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This script will attempt to upgrade you to the latest version without
removing existing data. A backup is still recommended.

NOTE: Your existing 'solar-only' installation will be migrated to:
      /home/powerwall/Powerwall-Dashboard

Upgrade - Proceed? [y/N]

Answer 'Y' to proceed with the upgrade and migration process, after which the dashboard should be configured as if running setup with the Tesla Cloud mode selected, but with existing data and configuration files still intact.

The migration process will remove all docker containers, move all relevant data and configuration files from the previous install location under tools/solar-only, and then re-create the docker containers.

The verify.sh script can be executed to confirm all services are running and configured correctly after the migration.

# Run verify to check the config and services
./verify.sh
Verify Powerwall-Dashboard 4.0.0 on Linux - Timezone: Australia/Sydney
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This script will attempt to verify all the services needed to run
Powerwall-Dashboard. Use this output when you open an issue for help:
