Energy: Cost for the individual devices

Hi All!

I’m sorry I haven’t maintained the integration for a while. Unfortunately can’t promise to have time in the near future as well.

Few recommendations so you aren’t so dependable of the integration logic:

  • If you have enegy (kwh) sensor, use this. Only if you don’t have, use power (W) sensor. Reason is that the energy calculations are more precice
  • Make a sensor with my integration and make unlimited amount of HAUtility Meter sensors for different periods you would like (all time, hourly, daily, two days, whatever you like).

I have seen all the ideas and request here and github, but just don’t have what it takes to implement these.

i’m really thrilled that so many people found something, I thought was only my need , so useful. Now I feel a bit bad letting you all down not maintaining what I started. If anybody is interested in contributing and doing what needs to be done, I would gladly give all permissions in github to continue what i started. I mean, this is what opensource sould be in my view.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, that in my opinion this functionality is something that would be nice to see in Home Assistant core. It would make so much sense to have a cost/profit side in the energy management.

3 years later, how do we still not have costs for individual devices?! I guess the only solution remains to add each one to the grid consumption.

This is surprising that this has not been added…it could be as basic as when you click the bars on the individual devices card it shows both kWh and price. Please please please add this!

This really should be a core feature. I cannot understand why? It is such an obvious feature to have.

Hey,
Its now possible to contribute to translations if you want to.
English, French and Dutch is already supported.

I’m using GitLocalize for the translations, click on BDVGitHub/dynamic_energy_cost | GitLocalize to contribute. If there is a language missing that you want to add let me know and I will make it available.
