What you can build with EmonCMS
EmonCMS serves as the open-source backend for the OpenEnergyMonitor initiative, engineered specifically for managing time-series data concerning energy, temperature, and environmental conditions. In contrast to typical general-purpose dashboards, each element of EmonCMS — ranging from its input processing pipelines to its PHPFina and PHPTimeSeries storage engines — is optimized to handle years of high-resolution sensor data efficiently on cost-effective hardware.
Hosting EmonCMS yourself on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) ensures that all your household, solar, heat-pump, and IoT measurements remain fully under your authority, eliminating per-feed restrictions or the need for cloud subscriptions. The integrated software stack, which includes an MQTT broker, MariaDB, and Redis, is designed to ingest data from devices such as emonPi, emonTx, ESPHome, Home Assistant, and any sensor capable of communicating via HTTP or MQTT.
Key features of EmonCMS
Time-series feeds
Custom PHPFina and PHPTimeSeries engines store years of high-resolution sensor readings far more efficiently than a general SQL database.
MQTT and HTTP inputs
Receive data from emonPi, emonTx, ESPHome, Home Assistant, or any device that can publish MQTT or call an HTTP API.
Input processing
Chain unit conversions, power-to-energy accumulators, rate limits, and virtual feeds without writing code or external scripts.
Dashboards and graphs
Drag-and-drop dashboard editor with multi-series graphs, gauges, and bar charts for live and historical sensor visualisation.
Apps for energy use
Prebuilt apps for solar PV, heat pumps, electric vehicles, and household consumption surface insights without manual configuration.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
