Communication between the bi-directional meter, inverter, and storage unit in a balcony power plant occurs via WLAN, local APIs, or protocols like Modbus – e.g., coupling a Shelly Pro 3EM with a SunEnergyXT BK215 PLUS for zero export. Here's how to set it up: 1. Connect the meter via WLAN. 2. Sync the inverter (e.g., Deye) with the storage unit. 3. Use an app like Home Assistant for real-time monitoring. Plug-&-Play at DRBO Greenenergy with German support.

What is a bi-directional meter in a balcony power plant and why do you need it?
A bi-directional meter measures feed-in and consumption bidirectionally and is essential for zero export and compliance with the 800 W limits from 2026. It avoids grid strain and maximizes self-consumption with storage units like the SunEnergyXT BK215 PLUS. Popular model: Shelly Pro 3EM as a plug-&-play solution for DRBO Greenenergy sets.
Which network architecture connects meter, inverter, and storage unit?
The network architecture uses a router as a hub with WLAN, local APIs, and protocols like Modbus. SunEnergyXT products such as the BK215 PLUS and EV3600 integrate seamlessly. DRBO Greenenergy offers pre-configured complete sets for dynamic tariffs like Tibber or aWATTar.
| Protocol | SunEnergyXT Compatibility | Setup Time |
|---|---|---|
| WLAN | BK215 PLUS, 500 series, EV3600 | 5–10 Min. |
| local API | EV3600, Deye inverters | 10–15 Min. |
| Modbus | SunEnergyXT storage units | 15–20 Min. |
How do you set up the bi-directional meter with the inverter for balcony power plants?
Install Shelly Pro 3EM, connect it via WLAN to the router, and activate data transfer in the inverter app, such as Deye. Sync with the SunEnergyXT 500 series for zero export. At DRBO Greenenergy, sets are tested; avoid IP conflicts through firmware updates.
Can the storage unit seamlessly communicate with the inverter and meter?
Yes, the SunEnergyXT BK215 PLUS communicates via local API with microinverters like the Deye SUN-M80G4-EU-Q0. Automatic charging control based on meter data achieves up to 95% self-consumption. DRBO Greenenergy guarantees integration in complete packages.
What is zero export and how does it optimize the overall balcony power plant system?
Zero export prevents backfeeding into the grid through meter feedback to the inverter. The SunEnergyXT EV3600 dynamically adjusts power, compatible with the BK215 PLUS. DRBO Greenenergy's configurable packages with Shelly Pro 3EM comply with 2026 standards up to 2,400 W.
What role does Home Assistant play in balcony power plant communication?
Home Assistant streams meter data via MQTT, creates dashboards for inverters and storage units. Integrates dynamic tariffs like aWATTar for savings. DRBO Greenenergy sets with SunEnergyXT BK215 PLUS are pre-installed compatible; use the free consultation.
