Welcome to Grid Getter

Grid Getter connects to your Tesla energy system and puts you in control of how your home uses, stores, and sells electricity. Set automations that respond to demand periods, protect your battery during peak hours, and keep your utility bills as low as possible — without lifting a finger.

What can you do with Grid Getter?

Section titled “What can you do with Grid Getter?”

Monitor in real time

Watch your solar production, grid draw, battery charge, and home consumption update every 60 seconds on the Live Dashboard.

Automate energy decisions

Create automations that respond to time of day, demand periods, or your utility’s peak rate schedule — automatically.

Protect against demand charges

DemandGuard watches your energy usage and switches your home to battery power before you exceed demand thresholds that trigger expensive utility penalties.

Track your history

Review every action your automations have taken, see detailed demand period logs, and export your full energy history.

How Grid Getter works

Section titled “How Grid Getter works”

Grid Getter connects to your Tesla account using Tesla’s official OAuth process. Once connected, it reads your site’s live energy data, stores your automation rules, and sends control commands back to your Tesla system when automations fire.

Your credentials are never stored — Grid Getter uses OAuth tokens that you can revoke at any time from your Tesla account or from the Integrations tab in Settings.
