Utility meters to Google Home

Hi all,

I couldn't find anything about sending your utility data to Google Home, most topics concern the other way around with speech.

Current (concerning) meters in my Domoticz:
- P1 electricity meter
- Water consumption
- Omnik PV power

Does anyone have ideas how to 'read' these in Google Home?
I can imagine it could be done to create some kind of virtual device so Google Home detects so you can send the data.

Or am I wrong? Curious if anyone else already solved this or has ideas.

Hello @aDJa,

Domoticz has no direct (hardware) interface with Google Home.

The Google Home Assistant is basically a speech assistant. You can ask questions and (if known) it will give you an answer.

I interfaced Domoticz by Node Red and the SmartNora node, which works fine.
They support the Temperature and Humidity Sensors. Other Sensors are not supported yet.

The devices, you mentioned, will be probably create sensors of type Power (W), Voltage (V), Energy (kWh) and for the water sensor L/h or m3.

These sensors are not supported by Google.
