Growatt Modbus Register 3073: Devicename Total energy to grid

Technical Definition

The register devicename Total energy to grid at address 3073 is used to monitor devicename total energy to grid on the Growatt.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U DWORD
• Unit: kWh
• Access: Read Only

How to Read (Python pymodbus)

Use this code snippet to read this specific value via RS485:

from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusSerialClient

client = ModbusSerialClient(method='rtu', port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=9600)
client.connect()

# Read devicename Total energy to grid (Address: 3073)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=3073, count=2, unit=1)

if not result.isError():
    print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
    print("Error reading register")

client.close()

Integration (Home Assistant)

Paste this into your configuration.yaml:

- platform: modbus_controller
  name: "devicename Total energy to grid"
  address: 3073
  value_type: U_DWORD
  unit_of_measurement: "kWh"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Total energy exported to the grid (kWh). Cumulative value since initialisation or reset.

Troubleshooting: Zero if no energy is exported. May indicate grid connection issues, export limits, or inverter shutdown.
