The ModbusCloud Gateway with the RS485 terminal and the antenna connectors

OpenEMS is the open-source energy management system used inside many commercial and residential battery storage products, and any OpenEMS-driven site exposes a standard Modbus-API. That API splits the installation into three logical components: the battery with state of charge and power flow, the grid connection with import and export power, and the PV input feeding the system — exactly the structure an installer expects on commissioning.

ModbusCloud templates follow the OpenEMS Modbus-API directly. You read battery state of charge, battery charge and discharge power, grid import and feed-in power, and PV generation through Modbus without walking through the OpenEMS specification. Live values stream into your portal, history supports energy reports and self-consumption analysis, and alert rules fire on SOC thresholds, feed-in limits, or reported faults, with an offline alarm you switch on for when the ModbusCloud Gateway goes silent.

All OpenEMS templates are free to browse. Import the battery, grid, or PV template into your ModbusCloud portal and read live data within minutes.
