How to connect Axle Energy to 1app.energy
Connect Axle Energy to 1app.energy with the Axle Home Assistant token, then use 1app.energy for Axle event monitoring where available.
If you use Axle Energy, you can connect it to 1app.energy with the Home Assistant token from your Axle account.
This setup is for Axle event monitoring in 1app.energy. The token helps 1app.energy check Axle event information where available. It is not your Axle password, and it is not used by 1app.energy for direct device control through Axle.
The quick version
- Open your Axle account.
- Go to Account, then Settings.
- Open Home Assistant.
- Select Generate Token.
- Copy the token.
- In 1app.energy, open Devices, choose Axle Energy, then select Connect.
- Paste the token and select Connect Axle Energy.
That is the whole setup.
Before you start
Check three things first:
- You can sign in to the Axle account for the home you want to connect.
- You can open 1app.energy and reach the Devices screen.
- You are ready to copy a token once Axle generates it.
Treat the token like a password. Do not post it in a public message or share it in a screenshot.

Step 1: Open Account in Axle
Sign in to Axle Energy and open Account.
On the Account screen, choose Settings.
Step 2: Open Home Assistant
Scroll down in Axle settings until you see Home Assistant.
Select Home Assistant to open the token page.
Step 3: Generate the token
On the Home Assistant page, select Generate Token.
Axle will show an authentication token. Copy the full token exactly as shown.
If you already generated a token earlier, use the current token shown by Axle. If you regenerate it, any other app using the old token may need the new one as well.
Step 4: Paste the token into 1app.energy
In 1app.energy, open Devices from setup or settings.
Choose Axle Energy, then select Connect. Paste the Axle Home Assistant token into the token field and select Connect Axle Energy.
1app.energy checks the token with Axle before saving the connection. If Axle rejects the token, copy it again or generate a fresh one in Axle and try again.
What happens after connection
When the token is accepted, Axle Energy appears as a connected event-monitoring device in 1app.energy.
1app.energy can then use Axle event information where available, keep Axle event context visible in the app, and show Axle-related reporting separately from supplier export credit where the required home data is available.
Axle still owns your Axle account, programme eligibility, event terms and payments. 1app.energy gives you a clearer place to view the home energy context around those events.

Common questions
Is this the same as connecting my inverter?
No. This connects Axle Energy event monitoring. Your inverter, EV charger and tariff are separate connections in 1app.energy.
Does this give 1app.energy direct Axle control of my device?
No. The Axle connection uses the Home Assistant token for Axle event information. Direct battery or inverter control depends on separate supported device connections and customer-enabled 1app.energy settings.
Do I still need the Axle app?
Yes. Keep using Axle for your Axle account, event programme, eligibility and payment information.
Can I connect Axle during 1app.energy onboarding?
Yes. If Axle Energy appears in your device setup, choose it, then paste the token from Axle.
Final thought
The Axle connection should be simple: generate the Home Assistant token in Axle, paste it into 1app.energy, and let 1app.energy verify it before saving.
