Home Battery

A home battery stores solar or off-peak energy and reports state of charge and power flow to Home Assistant. Local integration lets automations manage backup reserves, time-of-use arbitrage, and outage response.

Our top picks

The brands we reach for first, best to 3.

  1. Tesla

    1 model

    Tesla energy and charging hardware that works with Selora and Home Assistant. The Powerwall exposes a local HTTP API on its gateway for battery charge, solar production, and grid flows, while the Wall Connector polls live charging telemetry and session energy over Wi-Fi. Both read directly on the LAN with no cloud account required.

  2. Enphase

    1 model

    Enphase solar and storage devices that work with Selora and Home Assistant. The whole system (IQ8 microinverters, IQ Batteries, and metering) reports through the IQ Gateway, which Home Assistant polls directly on the local network via the enphase_envoy integration.

  3. SolarEdge

    1 model

    SolarEdge inverters and batteries that work with Selora and Home Assistant. We read SolarEdge systems locally over Modbus TCP (enabled once in SetApp) for real-time production, consumption, and battery data, with the cloud monitoring API available as a slower fallback.

Solar Surplus EV Charging

Installs a Home Assistant automation that starts your EV charger when your solar array is producing a surplus and stops it when production drops, so the car pulls from the roof rather than the grid. Add a grid meter and a home battery and it holds back until they are happy too.
