Where Sessy fits in a smart home

Sessy works as an energy device rather than a voice-controlled gadget. It stores surplus solar power, can follow dynamic energy prices, and can read a P1 or CT meter. Sessy's own app and portal handle everyday use, while a local REST API, an official Homey app and a community Home Assistant integration cover automation.

That suits Dutch households with solar panels who want a battery that Home Assistant or Homey can steer. It is weaker for anyone expecting Matter, Alexa or Google Home, and we found no Zonneplan integration, so dynamic trading is tied to the suppliers Sessy lists.

Frank Energie and EnecoUnconfirmedA comparison page by Zonneplan says trading on energy markets with Sessy needs SessyConnect and a dynamic contract from Frank Energie or Eneco. That page comes from a competing battery seller, and we did not find the same list on Sessy's own pages.Zonneplan: Zonneplan vs Sessy

Sessy local APIOfficialSessy publishes an OpenAPI 3.0.3 description (v1.1.0) of a REST API with JSON bodies. It covers power status, the active strategy, a power setpoint (only in the API strategy), energy totals and a dynamic schedule with EPEX day-ahead prices. The document does not cover authentication or the base address. A forum user reports that the local API needs no login, which is unconfirmed by Sessy.Sessy API description Sessy forum: evcc
