Sessy is a Dutch home battery made by Charged B.V. The original unit stores 5 kWh and units can be combined, and a 15 kWh Sessy Plus has been announced. It is managed through the Sessy app and web portal, and can also be steered through an open API.
Sessy works as an energy device rather than a voice-controlled gadget. It stores surplus solar power, can follow dynamic energy prices, and can read a P1 or CT meter. Sessy's own app and portal handle everyday use, while a local REST API, an official Homey app and a community Home Assistant integration cover automation.
That suits Dutch households with solar panels who want a battery that Home Assistant or Homey can steer. It is weaker for anyone expecting Matter, Alexa or Google Home, and we found no Zonneplan integration, so dynamic trading is tied to the suppliers Sessy lists.

The Home Assistant integration connects to the Sessy dongle by a hostname such as sessy-xxxx.local, and Sessy publishes an OpenAPI 3.0.3 description of a REST API for it. We could not confirm from Sessy's pages whether the dongle uses Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
For Sessy Plus, a news report says the communication hub connects by Ethernet cable and broadcasts its own radio signal to the battery, with no SIM card needed.
The Home Assistant integration and the Homey app both support a Sessy P1 meter. The Home Assistant integration also lists a CT meter, and the Homey app lists a Sessy CT.

Dynamic energy contracts
Yes
With a dynamic contract Sessy fetches the current price every 15 minutes. Dynamic mode charges when energy is cheap and supplies power when it is expensive, and Eco mode also charges in the cheapest hours.
A comparison page by Zonneplan says trading on energy markets with Sessy needs SessyConnect and a dynamic contract from Frank Energie or Eneco. That page comes from a competing battery seller, and we did not find the same list on Sessy's own pages.
We found no integration between Sessy and Zonneplan. Zonneplan's own page presents the two as alternative batteries and ties its market trading to a Zonneplan energy contract.
Sessy describes GridEase as a mode where a third party you choose operates the battery for grid services such as balancing, imbalance markets, GoPacs and emergency power.
A community integration by an individual developer installs through HACS and talks to the battery locally. It provides battery and meter sensors, power strategy and setpoint controls, EPEX prices, firmware updates and Energy Dashboard meters. It needs the local username and password from the device sticker. We found no built-in Home Assistant integration. Sessy itself says Home Assistant or Homey can control the battery in open mode.
Homey lists an official Sessy app published by CHARGED B.V. It works on Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Self-Hosted Server with Homey 12.13.0 or newer, and Homey Bridge is not listed. It supports Sessy, CT, Modbus, P1 and solar system devices and monitors and controls the battery.
There is no official evcc support. Users on the Sessy forum report connecting evcc through the local API, with only Normal, Hold and Charge modes available.
An independent iPhone app by Patrick van Zweden monitors and controls a Sessy battery over the local network. Its listing says Sessy is the only battery supported so far.
Sessy publishes an OpenAPI 3.0.3 description (v1.1.0) of a REST API with JSON bodies. It covers power status, the active strategy, a power setpoint (only in the API strategy), energy totals and a dynamic schedule with EPEX day-ahead prices. The document does not cover authentication or the base address. A forum user reports that the local API needs no login, which is unconfirmed by Sessy.
