EMS-ESP is an open-source firmware for the Espressif ESP32 microcontroller to communicate with EMS (Energy Management System) compatible equipment from manufacturers such as Bosch, Buderus, Nefit, Junkers, Worcester, Sieger, elm.leblanc and iVT.
It requires a small circuit to interface with the EMS bus which can be purchased from https://bbqkees-electronics.nl. These gateways are tested thoroughly and certified to work with EMS-ESP.
📦 Key Features
- Compatible with EMS, EMS+, EMS2, EMS Plus, Logamatic EMS, Junkers 2-wire, Heatronic 3 and 4
- Supporting over 120 different EMS compatible devices such as thermostats, boilers, heat pumps, mixing units, solar modules, connect modules, ventilation units, switches and more
- Easy to add external Temperature and Analog sensors that are attached to GPIO pins on the ESP32 board
- A multi-user, multi-language web interface to change settings and monitor incoming data
- A simple to use console, accessible via Serial/USB or Telnet for advanced operations and detailed monitoring
