Add the ability to track savings from solar panels

Good morning,

If my solar panels produce 1 KWh at a time when electricity costs €0.20/kWh they have saved me €0.20

Can you add to the solar panels the possibility of valuing the savings via a cost entity as for the purchase of electricity from the network?

That would be great for me :slight_smile:

For many people the price of electricity changes hourly or worse.
The amount of energy out of the panels changes moment by moment.

This would be a rather complex problem to solve at the integration level.

Perhaps you could come up with a template sensor that would do this and post it as a ‘share your projects’ so we can see what you are thinking. That might help get this into the integration you stated this should fit into.
