The `pvoutput` sensor platform consumes informations from [PVOutput](http://pvoutput.org/) which were uploaded by your solar photovoltaic (PV) system.
To add PVOutput details to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: pvoutput
system_id: YOUR_SYSTEM_ID
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
scan_interval: 120
```
Configuration variables:
- **api_key** (*Required*): Your API key. A read-only key is fine.
- **system_id** (*Required*): The ID of your station.
<p class='note warning'>
It's recommended to set `scan_interval:` according to a value greater than 60 seconds. The service only allows 60 requests per hour but the sensor's default is 30 seconds.
