Energy Dashboard showing generation at night?

I've just had a new install of a Fox H1 G2 5kW system. I had my installer wire it into my Home Assistant via an Elfin EW11. Once Home Assistant detected the Fox system I had it auto generate an energy dashboard.

It appears to be working and I'm getting some data but it does show that I'm generating 2 kW of energy through my panels even now in the dead of night. My Fox app does show that I'm generating nothing, which is obviously what I expect.

Can anyone suggest what might be going on with Home Assistant here, or am I just reading the energy dashboard cards wrong?

That obviously doesn't seem right - you can look at all of the sensors separately to see what the inverter is reporting - so try adding them to a dashboard so you can see what PV1/2 Power and PV1/2 Power Total are showing.

Can you post a screen shot of the energy page so I can see what you are seeing.
