Can I add lamps in energy monitor?

The energy ddashboar only let me add things that measure energy. However on Tuya I can add how much each light consume and it adds its consumption based on how many hours it stayed on.

Is it possible to do this in home asisstant? I could fill how many watts my lamp consumes and itś fixed so there would be no problem

I think there are custom components that can help with this, but it’s pretty easy to do on your own as well.

For your lamp, create a power template sensor. This should be 0 if the light is off, or X watts if the light is on.

Once you have that power sensor, create a Riemann Sum helper (mode: left) from that sensor. That will create an energy sensor. You can then add that to the energy panel.
