It seems the sensor this Smart Things integration creates e.g. sensor.smart_meter_electricity can be plugged directly in to Home Assistant’s new energy monitoring dashboard?
This sensor was previously not very useful as it’s just an ever-growing value of energy consumption (not sure how often it resets):
I had it on my list to set this sensor up with the Utility Meter integration as some have done above but unless I’m missing something, this is no longer necessary.
Although there’s no option for setting a “cycle” Home Assistant seems to be turning the sensor data into something accurate and useful:
Since it looks like the Smart Things integration provides both electricity and gas (if I had a smart gas meter) I’m not sure what additional data should be sent.
Perhaps this feature is “done”? Happy to be corrected!
