Only the Carlo Gavazzi energy meters are supported.

I also failed to mention that support for ABB B series meters has recently been added.
1) Add support for ABB B-series meters, for use in ESS. Three types:
The link in the document to Em24 modbus TCP, links to EM24 RS485, so no answer is given to the Modbus TCP solutuion.
Secondly:
Why is Victron so afraid of opening up the Modbus TCPIP track to Modbus TCP/IP Gridmeters, such as:
Janitza RM 96
ABB M2M and M4M,
Siemens PAC 2200 - 3200.
Are the Gavazzi meters Sooo profitable to Victron ?
Some of the Janitza, ABB's M4M, or Siemens PAC's are under €300, with much more functionalities.
There is a project here https://community.victronenergy.com/idea/114716/power-meter-lib-for-modbus-rtu-based-meters-from-a.html to develop a library to support multiple meters.
It may be possible to join that project to develop the support needed for your meter.
