The `pvoutput` sensor platform consumes information 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 %}
api_key:
description: Your API key. A read-only key is fine.
required: true
type: string
system_id:
description: The ID of your station.
required: true
type: string
name:
description: Name of the sensor.
required: false
default: PVOutput
type: string
{% endconfiguration %}
<div 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.
</div>
To format the PVoutput sensor it's recommended to use the [template component](/topics/templating/). For example:
```yaml
sensor:
- platform: pvoutput
system_id: YOUR_SYSTEM_ID
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
scan_interval: 150
- platform: template
sensors:
power_consumption:
value_template: {% raw %}'{% if is_state_attr("sensor.pvoutput", "power_consumption", "NaN") %}0{% else %}{{ state_attr('sensor.pvoutput', 'power_consumption') }}{% endif %}'{% endraw %}
friendly_name: 'Using'
unit_of_measurement: 'Watt'
energy_consumption:
value_template: {% raw %}'{{ "%0.1f"|format(state_attr('sensor.pvoutput', 'energy_consumption')|float/1000) }}'{% endraw %}
friendly_name: 'Used'
unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
power_generation:
value_template: {% raw %}'{% if is_state_attr("sensor.pvoutput", "power_generation", "NaN") %}0{% else %}{{ state_attr('sensor.pvoutput', 'power_generation') }}{% endif %}'{% endraw %}
friendly_name: 'Generating'
unit_of_measurement: 'Watt'
energy_generation:
value_template: {% raw %}'{% if is_state_attr("sensor.pvoutput", "energy_generation", "NaN") %}0{% else %}{{ "%0.2f"|format(state_attr('sensor.pvoutput', 'energy_generation')|float/1000) }}{% endif %}'{% endraw %}
friendly_name: 'Generated'
unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
```
