Chart showing correlation between power usage, temperature, and humidity

Configuration Frontend
1

Now with the lovely new Opower integration, I am able to pull my power usage.

I would like to correlate it with temperature & humidity as a line graph.

chart_type: line
period: day
type: statistics-graph
entities:
  - opower:elec_secret_special_magic_acct_no_energy_consumption
  - sensor.hamd_temperature
title: Temp to Power Usage
stat_types:
  - state
  - mean

The sensor.hamd_temperature is the mean temperature of all the temperature sensors in the property.

The above code looks kind of like it (see attached), but the Y scales are obviously not proper. I need a way to set both lines (or three if including humidity), to start at the same spot or closer to each other.

How would I go about it?

Thanks!

I would say you need to use a more powerful charting tool - although it might be possible using the built-in line chart.

One of the best charting integrations is the apexcharts card (HACS). It takes a bit of work but worth it and the documentation and threads here in the community are extensive.

See below as an example.

Good luck playing with apexcharts. :slight_smile:

I want to use it for my Mitsubishi airco. It had a energy cycle sensor. It does not show hours and kWh. Any idea?
