Can you please show your full configuration.yaml file?
Hi @ozczecho & @Burningstone ,
That tool is really nice, thanks for pointing it out! I I copied your code and it seems to work in the template editor. When I put the code in config.yaml file I loose all the readings on the meter.
See below my full config.yaml file:
# Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)
default_config:
# Uncomment this if you are using SSL/TLS, running in Docker container, etc.
# http:
# base_url: example.duckdns.org:8123

You have two sensor: sections, that’s not allowed like this. Put all sensor configuration in the same sensor: section.
Like this:
sensor:
- platform: dsmr
port: /dev/ttyUSB0
dsmr_version: 5
- platform: template
sensors:
energie_verbruik_totaal:
friendly_name: "Energie Verbruik (totaal)"
unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_1') |float + states('sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_2') | float }}"

Aaah that is the issue, great! Everything is working now, amazing! Thanks!
I just have an additional question regarding entities;
When I added the meter in the config.yaml file, a lot of entities were added in the list but as you can see in the config.yaml file there are only 5 entities listed. All the extra entities are also not working (no value showing). How and why are those extra entities in the list and are they not working because it is not supported?
Thanks anyway!
this works for me, thanks everyone!!!
Esto me sirvió al día de hoy. Gracias a todos!!

apparently I am even more a novice with templating.
I have this code in the sensor: section of my Yaml file
- platform: template
sensors:
P1_totaal:
friendly_name: Vermogen (totaal)
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
value_template: '{{ states("sensor.power_consumption") |float - states("sensor.power_production") | float }}'
I expect that I can use something like sensor.P1_totaal to be available for displaying the newly calculated value. But I can’t find it. where am I going wrong?
P1_totaal needs to be all lowercase.

still no luck.
the Template test section of developer tools does not show any errors and the calculation is fine.
the configuration is ok according to the config page.
and all my MQTT sensors are working fine
- platform: mqtt
name: P1_Gas_day
state_topic: "SmartConsult/DSMR"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Gas_day}}"
device_class: gas
state_class: measurement
unit_of_measurement: m³
- platform: template
sensors:
p1_totaal:
friendly_name: Vermogen (totaal)
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
value_template: '{{ states("sensor.power_consumption") |float - states("sensor.power_production") | float }}'
If I look to the mqtt sensor, I can specify the name with lower and uppercase, but indeed as search the sensor the it is sensor.p1_gas_day all in lowercase.
and according to this post
the used method is legacy and the new method shoud be
template:
sensor:
name: p1_total
unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
state: '{{ states("sensor.power_consumption") |float - states("sensor.power_production") | float }}'
and after a reboot: Presto. it works
Hi everyone,
I tried combining two DC input values from my PV-Panels to one sensor like mentioned here: Template - Home Assistant
and in this thread.
template:
sensor:
name: "DC Power All"
unit_of_measurement: W
state: "{{ states('sensor.scb_dc1_power') | float + states('sensor.scb_dc2_power') | float }}"
But the sensor is not shown in HA and I can’t see any errors in the log.
So what am I doing wrong?
OK I found out, that when having more than one customized sensor, they all should be placed under “template:” like this
template:
sensor:
....
sensor:
....
Having multiple “template:” entries in configuration.yaml doesn’t seem to work.

I made a template.yaml which is included in configuration.yaml with this template:
- sensor:
- name: Differenzverbrauch
unique_id: Differenzverbrauch
unit_of_measurement: 'W'
state: '{{ states("sensor.shellyem3_c45bbe6be51f_channel_a_power") |float(0) |round(2)
+ states("sensor.shellyem3_c45bbe6be51f_channel_b_power") |float(0) |round(2)
+ states("sensor.shellyem3_c45bbe6be51f_channel_c_power") |float(0) |round(2) }}'
device_class: energy

can someone explain to me how to create the sensor.energy_consumption_tarif_1?
does this have anything to do with mqtt?
Hi all,
Can some help me to calculate only the energy consumption if it is >0?
My template now is following:
- platform: template
sensors:
energie_totaal:
friendly_name: Vermogen (totaal)
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
value_template: '{{ states("sensor.youless_consumption_high" )| float + states("sensor.youless_consumption_low") | float }}'

Maybe this will guide you.
value_template: >
{% if is_state('switch.sonoff_1000bee815', 'on') %}
{{ ((states('sensor.sonoff_1000bee0f9_temperature')|float
(states('sensor.sonoff_1000bee815_temperature')|float))
|float | round(1) }}
{% else %} 0.0 {% endif %}
