Varying goals for solar

[ixu]

SENSE! This seems like a prime target for an ML/intelligent auto-alert that would be relatively easy to implement.

Solar has predictable and expected generation based on the panel baseline efficiency, age and weather conditions … and one assumes that an unmodified array could be “locked in” early in the learning cycle IF (and perhaps only if) the learning incorporates local weather conditions? Have higher brains thought this through?

This seems too complex for reliable user-determined alerts and needs the backend brain to work things out. i.e. Its NOT an example of the following:

I set alerts for a few things:

1. Range burner on for more than 45 minutes. It’s goes off for long simmering sauces, but that’s fine. It’s saved me from leaving the burner on a couple of times. I’m surprised I haven’t burned the house down before now.
2. Towel warmer on for more than two hours. This is really just a backup for the automation I have that automatically turns the towel warmer off after an hour.

I think it would be great if we could have a thread (or even better a wiki-thread) with examples of good alerts to set.

I think it would be great to see the long list of things that Sense can Save and does (in theory, at least) actually Save!
