Enphase integration intermittent Solar production reporting interval

[ggatenby]

The problem

Since upgrading to 2023.9.1 from 2023.5.4 I'm experiencing an issue where production is reporting at 14-16 minute intervals, with sporadic 1 minute intervals as well. This is despite the production values being updated in the Envoy UI every 1 minute. With 2023.5.4 the production reporting interval was always 1 minute.

The consumption reporting interval remains unaffected with 2023.9.1 - it's 1 minute the same as it was with 2023.5.4

Please see attached - upgrade took place at 16:12 on September 9th after which there is a significant change on the production graph

The shame and taking more tarn 1 minute to update. Uninstalled and installed Enphase dev Working perfectly

[ggatenby]

Thanks for the comment @aperezva , unfortunately I was not so lucky. Re-install did not resolve for me

@ggatenby I didn´t reinstall the same integration, I installed Enphase DEV from HACS as an alternative , and it s working fine. After 2023.09 I migrated to official one, but suffering this issues , I have come back to Enphase DEV integration that works perfectly in this moment.

I hope this point help you

Hello @ggatenby ,
I am having the same issue, same Enphase Software Version; Re-install did not work; and I never tried the HACS version/workaround; same 15min refreshes, sometimes a 1min refresh in between as well.
My http://192.168.en.voy/production.json provides continuous information...
I have always used the Standard Integration from HA; worked perfectly until 2023.9.1 (I was previously on 2023.8.4); I am upset about myself that I didn't further/extendedly test in my "test infrastructure" prior updating... my gut was telling me to test as I saw this "major" improvement; should have listened. ;)

[dgomes]

To get a solution to this issue, would it be possible for you to run some python code (from the base library (https://github.com/pyenphase/pyenphase) that would provides us valuable information for debugging ?

I'm available on discord with the same handle

[ggatenby]

Hi @dgomes I have spent a bit of time analysing the data returned from the Envoy at http://envoy.local/production.json and it appears the the wNow value from the inverters is being used to provide production values into HA and it is only updated every ~15 minutes. On the other hand the wNow value from the eim appears to update every 1 minute.

Have attached production.json

production.json.txt

[ggatenby]

@bdraco not sure that using /api/v1/production is going to resolve because it appears just like inverters, "wattsNow" is only refreshed every 15 minutes as well. Also not sure what the data represents because the values are different to anything available from http://envoy.local/production.json

Agreed. We left it as draft since it didn't solve the issue. I'll close it now that we have a second confirmation

[bdraco]

nevermind, I see it above. Getting too tired here

[bdraco]

`
"type": "eim",
"activeCount": 1,

`

[bdraco]

pyenphase/pyenphase#91 should fix it

[bdraco]

My 4.x system has

"type": "eim",
"activeCount": 0,

So I get the slow updates no matter which one it picks

@ggatenby If you run the fixture collector and send the zip file we can add your system to the test suite so we don't regress this in a future update

[MisterX-RC]

I’m having the same problem as discribed above. My production updates every 15 or so minutes.

An I reading correctly that the issue has been found and will be resolved with the next update?

[ggatenby]

@MisterX-RC, appears it may depend on the Envoy firmware version - if you had 1 minute updates prior to core-2023.9.1 then it's probable it's the same issue I have that @bdraco committed a fix into pyenphase for a few hours ago

pyenphase/pyenphase#91

[aperezva]

Please could you confirm that problem is solved in the new 2023.9.2 ha core version?

Or we must to wait to implement it in the next version?

[bdraco]

2023.9.3.. in ~10 days

[bdraco]

If you want it now you can install as a custom component and delete when 2023.9.3 is out

cd /config
