## What is EnerTalk?

EnerTalk

The free EnerTalk app is an innovative and engaging way to monitor your electricity usage and your spending. With this app you can access your home real-time energy usage right from your smartphone at any moment. It even supports multiple properties and it doesn’t require any hardware purchase or installation!



Key features:


1. Energy tracking:


Monitor your energy usage and visualize your daily and monthly patterns


2. No surprises:


Estimate your monthly bill and ensure that you are properly charged by your electric utility


3. Updates on-the-go:


Set your goals in the app and receive useful tips, saving opportunities based on your energy use



How does it work?


When you connect the app with your utility provider account, we pull the energy data and render it on the app for your convenience. This way you’ll be able to see the historic energy usage, daily patterns and current day/month summary, all based on your actual usage data.


We currently support these 2 utility companies:

-Pacific Gas & Electric

-San Diego Gas & Electric


Note:

Solar Production

This is the net amount of (solar) power sent back to the grid at any available data interval. In most cases this is not equal to your total solar production. This value equals to your solar production minus the electricity used at the same time by active loads in your electric system.

### 1/5 — No PGE support

*2024-08-30, version 2.6.0*

As others have mentioned you can’t interface with PGE data to an expired certificate on the entertalk side. Without the developer fixing this it’s useless.

### 1/5 — Stopped connecting to PG&E and never responded to my outreaches

*2024-06-19, version 2.6.0*

Stopped connecting to PG&E and never responded to my outreaches.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-12, version 2.6.0*

I’ve attempted to get this to work, but it won’t retrieve my usage data.

### 1/5 — PGE - DONOT INSTALL THIS APP

*2023-09-12, version 2.6.0*

It’s total waste, there is a server certification validation issue that prevents you from using the app.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect to PG&E

*2023-08-15, version 2.6.0*

I’d really like to use this app but their API connector to the green button data is broken. Until they fix the connector, this app is useless for PG&E customers.

### 1/5 — Does not work with PGE

*2023-08-15, version 2.6.0*

Received an invalid certificate error when trying to connect to PGE.

### 1/5 — Won’t connect to pge

*2023-08-03, version 2.6.0*

I try connecting my account but it won’t work.

### 1/5 — Stopped working with PG&E, unresponsive to email

*2023-06-20*

PG&E green button integration stopped functioning. No one at Enertalk is answering emails flagging the issue.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect to PG&E

*2023-03-28, version 2.6.0*

Might be a very useful app, but unfortunately clicking to connect to PG&E immediately returns a “server error” warning and I can go no further. Tried to connect months ago and had this issue, recently removed the app and reinstalled with the same result. 
I hope they fix the issue because I would love to see more data on my solar use & overall electricity use…

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect

*2023-03-15, version 2.6.0*

Doesn’t connect to PG&E- just throws an error
