The date time convention used as well as the attribute names are different. You would need to adjust the template sensor to cater for this.
The Nordpool integration is just too flaky nowadays. Hardly ever updates in the afternoon without HA restart.
I need help with the attribute and date time conversion. I’d like to just make a template sensor that i could point all my existing code to. I.e just use the entso-e data (i have the integration up and running) but have an entity with the same exact data, format and attributes as the nordpool data has now. Has anyone managed to accomplish this?
I’m just too deep already and cant start reformatting all the code.

I would also like to move away from Nordpool, but I am jot seeing much progress with entso-e and it’s still a nightmare to get it to calculate the actual price with taxes and fees included…
My graphs stopped working after a reinstall from backup of HA. My graphs are empty except for the ‘Now’ marking.
The data form Entso seems to be coming through just fine: 
Also when looking at the ‘State’ of the entity the price data is showing up just fine:
My card configuration looks like this:
type: custom:apexcharts-card
experimental:
color_threshold: true
graph_span: 24h
span:
start: day
now:
show: true
label: Nu
header:

data_generator: |
return entity.attributes.prices.map((record, index) => {
return [record.time, record.price];
});
yaxis:

Anybody that has seen this problem before or knows how to fix it?
I had the same issue with Nordpool update 0.0.14. Turned back to 0.0.13. There is more info on github/nordpool. Look at #issues
Hi I had the same issue a few days ago. Remove the current integration and reinstall it under a different name. This works but you have to update your charts and templates which still use the old entity names etc. Not sure what is going on but something with cache perhaps? Is there a way to clean the cache from HA? Perhaps someone has some insight into this?
Today I didn’t got an update on my new prices. I’ve tried to restart the Home Assistant Yellow, the reboot the services, et cetera. But without any success.
More people who experienced this? Any idea what could be done about that?
Same here, no prices for tomorrow yet. I think i didn’t see new data on the Entso-e platform either until late this evening. However I could not find anything suggesting the service was down on their side.
Tried restarting HA, new setup of Entso-e integration with new API token, but no luck so far.
Edit: There are no tomorrow prices for the NL region available on the Entso-e platform at this time.
Issue seems to be resolved, I’ve received new prices without any action on my HA
Hi all,
I have two sensors for the entsoe platform, (one with tax and the other without.)
They both stopted working for no apparent reason, as far as i can see. (data isn’t updated anymore)
I made a new sensor, with a different name, that one is updating values.
I complete removed the Entsoe configuration and complete folder in Custom components, and re installed it.
I reused the old sensor names that were not working, to find out that they are still not working.
Again a completely new sensor with a different name is working.
So somehow there is something related to this sensor “name” in home assistant that is not working.
Does anyone have an idea?
I’ve added a new configuration as well, with the same API key and such. And then it works as expected. No idea what the reason behind it is though.
If someone has the answer, feel free to share!
Hi all,
Is anyone reading and using this topic, from Belgium ? Has anyone in Belgium got a ‘flexible’ contract where you pay by the energy consumed per hour to get maximum use of this integration ? If so, which contract at which supplier please ? (DM is possible if you want to share private)
Thanks all,
Kr,
Bart
Where you able to find the injection prices ?
Hello Bart
Supplier: I’m using the “Dynamic” contract from Engie Electrabel. See Voorwaarden en prijsfiches | ENGIE
I use the following integrations to pull the dynamic prices:
- ENTSO-e
- nordpool
- nordpool_diff
More details about how my system works see:
FYI: I kept detailed costs since I’ve switched to this type of contract. In the first 9 months I’ve saved about €2400 by picking this type of contract and using it right using HA.
Thanks a lot @bel_RV, I’m going to have a good look at in. This is exactly what I am aiming for. Be sure that I will ‘harras’ you with more questions 
Does anyone know why I get only one line and not two ? My tomorrow prices don’t seem to get calculated correctly:

Prices are published at 14:00 each day.
FYI I use this code below to draw the graph. I like to use “Date(record.time).getTime()-86400000” to map out the prices of the next day on top of the day before, but keep in mind between 0:00 and 14:00 it only shows a flat line.

Thanks a lot @Bel_RV 
Will try the code now and keep you posted.
But as mentioned in other post. Where the h*** did you get the injection prices ?
You can download the injection prices. The distribution costs are added for the consumer prices. You can add it to a template in the entso-e integration. See the discussion on the integration 's github page. It lists the calculation per country.
Has anyone got the same idea to make a graph with the comparison of tradtional billing & the dynamic billing ? A graph that visualises the cost per hour using the entso-e / nordpool pricing vs the cost per hour (day) using the fixed cost in traditional energy contract ?

Bart
