Power distribution widget

The Power Distribution Widget provides a real-time visual representation of the power flow within a Distributed Energy Resource (DER) system.

It enables users to quickly assess the contribution and interaction between the Grid, Photovoltaic system, Battery Storage, EV Chargers, HVAC, and Other appliances.

Each element is represented by an icon, and its associated power value (in kW) is shown with one decimal place for clarity.

By default, the widget displays only two elements — Grid and Home — while additional components can be added through configuration. This visualization helps users immediately understand how power is being consumed or produced within their system.

  • When a DER component is not associated with a variable, its circle and label disappear automatically from the widget view.

  • The widget supports only real-time values, typically the system’s kW variable.

  • Proper configuration of Grid and Home variables is mandatory for the widget to function correctly.
