The **Powerfox** {% term integration %} allows you to gather data from your [Poweropti](https://shop.powerfox.energy/collections/frontpage) devices, by using their cloud API and fetch the data in Home Assistant.

[Powerfox](https://www.powerfox.energy/) is a German company that provides smart meters (Poweropti) for reading electricity, water, gas, and heat. They have their own cloud platform where you can monitor the usage of your devices and get insights into your energy consumption.

## Poweropti devices

Not all Poweropti devices are supported currently. Check the list below to see if your device is working with this integration. Create a [feature request](/help/) if your device is not supported yet.

| Device | Type | Supported |
| --------------------- | ----------- | ---------- |
| PA 201901 / PA 201902 | Power meter | Yes |
| PB 202001 | Power meter | Not tested |
| WA 201902 | Water meter | Yes |
| Powerfox FLOW | Gas meter | No |
| HA 201902 | Heat meter | No |

## Data updates

The integration will poll the Powerfox API every 5 minutes to update the data in Home Assistant.

## Sensors

The Powerfox platform mainly provides sensors that you can use in your [energy dashboard](/energy).

## Power meter

It will create the following sensors:

- **Power (W)**: Active power that is measured.
- **Energy usage (kWh)**: How much energy is used since the installation.
- **Energy usage - low tariff (kWh)**: Energy usage on the low tariff.
- **Energy usage - high tariff (kWh)**: Energy usage on the high tariff.
- **Energy returned (kWh)**: Energy returned to the grid.

{% note %}
The energy tariff sensors are only available if your Poweropti device supports it.
{% endnote %}

## Water meter

It will create the following sensors:

- **Cold water (m³)**: How much cold water is used.
- **Warm water (m³)**: How much warm water is used.

## Remove integration

This integration follows standard integration removal, no extra steps are required.
