OK when it functions

The app is informative when it functions correctly. However, it doesn’t often show the ‘start’ when it connects to the network. So we don’t know what we are actually generating at that point in time. Very annoying.

New update - EDP removes many negative reviews!

If you haven’t already purchased EDP system, I would strongly suggest to look at orher installers. The offer they made to me without battery is truly poor and inflexible if I had my time again, I would not use EDP.
we are not going on holidays so we can save up to remove EDP system. It is in our experience very inaccurate includes electricity at night.! any electricity you generate and sent to the EDP grid is minimal 0.001 euro per kwh - This was a very bad experience for me as a consumer and I guess other consumers who have also written reviews are also very unhappy. I’ve already mentioned that many of the bad reviews. keep being removed.

EDP needs to treat its customers better and make a better offer to customers.

People of Portugal need more competition in the power supply business which with regulation will improve the quality of service and innovation away from this state owned utility- which the Chinese government though its 3 Gorges Dam power co.is the biggest shareholder

Hello. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for the inconvenience caused. We would like to clarify that the information displayed in the app regarding the consumption and production of the solar panels is obtained through constant communication with the installed meters. If there is a record of production at night, this may indicate that the inverter clamp is misaligned, and technical assistance may be required to correct the issue. To help you resolve this matter, we kindly ask you to send us an email at edpdigital@edp.pt, including the email address used to access the app. Thank you. Equipa de Suporte Digital.

Still suffering poor choice of EDP

Dear Rita of reviews it may not come as a surprise that previous negative views of EDPs installation of solar systems seem to disappear with regular. I truly regret. over €5000 for an installation with EDP it has been one problem after the other. I even have readings on the app which is more than useless that shows electricity being generated at night! That seems to be little incentive for this X state owned business to get to grips with poor customer service, all I can say if you are thinking of installing think very carefully I would never do it again. Such is the poor installation we are forgoing our holidays to save up to replace the inverters and equipment.

Unstable and unreliable and loads of missing data

This is one of the most unstable apps I have ever used. Most often it take 2 or 3 attempts to connect to solar system and does not seem possible to give real-time data readings. Also logs out for no apparent reason. Poor Still takes 2 or 3 attempts to connect to my solar system. Over 6 days of production and usage missing from monthly stats. How can this be a ‘real time’ app? Very poor app which deserves zero stars

This app is useless. UPDATE Feb 24

UPDATE
2803/24
Having a response an an appointment for technical support. I came to Portugal. Stayed in all day of the 27th and Sérgio Rodrigues the engineer I was expecting, surprise surprise did not turn up. No call nothing. EDP Solar. DO NOT go there. There are many more reliable companies who do the same thing.
Totally unreliable. Solar panels taking up space not saving the planet. Well done EDP

Back in January I posted a bad review if this app and the service of EDP solar in Portugal. Hoping to get some help with a very long term issue. I heard back from someone called Jose F from EDP digital. I have his full name but chose not to publish here. There followed many many emails and promises of assistance. I got very excited. Only for the emails and help to stop suddenly. No reply. No help. How a monopoly company can get away with treating their customers like this. It's appalling. FIX YOUR APP for the love of God! Over a year ago the app stopped showing any data. I gave contacted EDP in person and in line and no one can tell us if our panels are producing energy. This is because the EDP bill only show ms the amount due after any energy produced is deducted. It does not show the amount deducted if any!! Do the only way you know if the panels are working is if the app shows the energy produced. The app is not working!!! Do we are paying for solar panels but don't know if they work. So ANNOYING. Is the problem with the app or the panels???

Hello Stamper1940. We apologize for the delay in responding to the emails you sent us. As indicated in the email we sent you, consumption information does not appear in the app because the equipment installed on-site is not sending us information, so it will be necessary to replace these same equipment. Therefore, we ask you to indicate in the email the date for the technical team to make this visit, please. Thank you. Equipa de Suporte Digital.

Poor app. Doesn’t show battery activity

As well as solar panels I also have a 5kW battery. EDP has confirmed it is registered on their system but it is not showing on the app. No one can confirm whether there is functionality to show battery activity (charge status, charge in, charge out). This means that it sounds a showing the solar panels as producing energy in the middle of the night. I am guessing this is power from the battery but who knows. EDP themselves don’t seem to. The app is useless for me without battery data.

EDP RE:DY to EDP Solar

The app is only measuring solar output. It says it cannot connect with the smart meter. I had this equipment when it was EDP RE:DY and when it changed, I had no access to the app or desktop versions, with no notice at all. It has been fickle from the start. I would not recommend EDP for a solar installation as the installers broke my roof tiles and then the inverters on the panels failed. They waited until I was outside the warranty period to replace them.

Support

Very disappointed I have had no electricity for the whole month of June and inspite of repeated emails I have no response or help. My Iberdola bill was € 185 because of this. I live in London and they do not even a what’s app number to contact them. They were recommended by Caixa bank. They have no control although the entire deal was done through them. I wish I could terminate their contract.

Useless

I have to give it one star, but it should have a minus sign in front. The previous EDP RE:DY app was very good it included tax estimates and was quite accurate. This replacement is just useless. Doesn’t update and misses days out altogether. Don’t buy this system.

The New EDP REDY?

I’ve been unable to access the EDP RE:DY app and just realised they have changed the app.
Downloaded, entered my details and I’m in. It was in my language (English) and as it all looks new I’ll reserve my review until I’ve used it a while.
Did notice reports are not in English.
Looking forward to using it.
