VARTA builds residential and small-commercial battery storage for PV self-consumption. The templates cover the VARTA element, element backup, pulse, and pulse neo product lines, each split into battery, PV, and grid register groups. These are the devices you find in the utility room of a house with rooftop solar: a wall-mounted or floor-standing battery cabinet that buffers daytime PV surplus for evening use, with an option for backup operation on selected models.

ModbusCloud reads your VARTA energy storage system over Modbus TCP and forwards the numbers that matter day-to-day: battery state of charge, charge/discharge power, PV generation flowing into the house, and grid import/export. Installers configure alert rules for low SOC or charge power below a threshold they set, plus an offline alarm for when the ModbusCloud Gateway goes silent. Historical graphs show how self-consumption evolves across seasons — useful when advising a homeowner on whether to expand their PV array or add a wallbox.

All 13 VARTA templates are free to browse. Import the one that matches your installation into your ModbusCloud portal and read live data within minutes — no register mapping, no manufacturer PDFs.
