Read energy meters and inverters remotely

See meter readings and generation from different brands in one overview, and export the readings for billing.

Read meter readings for billing

The ModbusCloud Gateway reads energy meters and inverters over Modbus RTU (RS485) or Modbus TCP.

See the reading and power of each meter, with 365 days of history. Export meter readings as CSV for billing.

What installers use the meter data for

Readings per tenant

In a multi-tenant building or an owners' association, you read every sub-meter remotely. At the end of the month, you export the readings as CSV.

Production, consumption and feed-in side by side

A dashboard shows the generation of the inverters next to the consumption and feed-in of the main meter.

Spot inverter faults sooner

When the power drops below a threshold or the inverter reports a fault code, you get an email. You step in before the owner calls.

Meter readings for your customer

Your customer sees their own meter readings in a customer portal in your branding and saves reports as PDF.

Three situations from energy management

  • Start of the monthManual readings

    The meter round

    Your engineer walks past twelve sub-meters and writes down the readings for billing. One figure is wrong, and the tenant spots it on the invoice.

  • 3 portalsThree logins

    SMA, Fronius and SolarEdge

    You manage inverters from different brands. SMA, Fronius and SolarEdge each have their own portal, so you log in three times.

  • Generation onlyConsumption unknown

    Half the energy balance

    The inverter portal shows production. The consumption of the building, the chargers and the heat pump sits in other systems, or nowhere.

Templates for inverters and energy meters

These meters and inverters have a template ready, so the scan recognises them.

If your meter is not listed, we build the template for free as soon as we have the register data. You can also set up the registers yourself.

Connect a meter in three steps

  1. Connect

    Run an RS485 cable with two wires, A and B, from the meter to the gateway. An inverter can also connect over the network.

  2. Scan

    Enter the serial number in the portal and start a scan. The gateway recognises the meters and inverters from the library.

  3. Monitor

    See readings, power and voltage per meter. Set up alerts, for example when an inverter's power drops below 200 W.
