clever-PV
clever-PV is an online service of clever-PV GmbH. With the clever-PV app, your SOLIO continuously sends its current readings to your clever-PV account. Your SOLIO stays under your control: clever-PV only receives data and cannot control your battery.
At a glance
- Your SOLIO sends the current values to clever-PV about every 5 seconds.
- The connection is read-only: clever-PV cannot change anything on your SOLIO.
- You need a clever-PV account. There you get the address that you enter in the app.
- The app can be installed once per system. You will find it in the App Center under Interfaces.
- Your SOLIO needs a permanent internet connection for this.
Which data is transferred
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Grid | How much electricity you are currently drawing from or feeding into the grid. |
| Generation | How much electricity your solar system is currently generating. |
| State of charge | How full your battery is. |
| Battery power | Whether, and how strongly, your battery is currently charging or discharging. |
| System | The identifier of your SOLIO and whether your system is running without faults. |
What clever-PV offers with these values depends on your clever-PV account. clever-PV can answer any questions about it.
How to set up clever-PV
Log in to clever-PV and copy the address for data transfer (push API). It is quite long and ends with a code that starts with ?code=. Copy the complete address.
Open Your Energy Journey → AppCenter in the menu and select the clever-PV app under Interfaces. Click Install app.
Paste the address into the URL field. The address is hidden like a password.
Tick the consent box. This allows data from your SOLIO to be passed on to clever-PV GmbH. The app cannot be installed without this tick.
Click Install app. From now on your SOLIO sends its values to clever-PV.
Because clever-PV only receives data, this app has no separate view in the Cockpit. You can check that everything arrives in your clever-PV account.
Good to know
The system status shows “Data could not be transmitted”. Your SOLIO cannot reach clever-PV at the moment. Check your SOLIO's internet connection. If it is fine, copy the complete address from your clever-PV account again and enter it via Edit app.
The address is rejected as invalid.
Usually a part at the end is missing. Copy the complete address again, including ?code= and everything after it.
How do I stop the data transfer? Open the app in the App Center and click Remove app. Your SOLIO will then no longer send data to clever-PV.
Are missing periods sent later? Your SOLIO always sends the current values. If the internet connection was interrupted, the values from that time are not transferred afterwards.
