I have Smappee for monitoring my energy usage of all my devices. One of them is my heat pump that I also read using Modbus.
So, right now in HA I can see if my heatpump is busy preparing hot water, cooling or heating the house. Using smappee I can see the energy consumption.
Now I want HA to split this energy usage in multiple entities, so that I can see how much energy the heatpump is using when it’s operating in “cooling”, “heating”, “hot water” or “other” mode.
My initial thought was that I can use a template sensor to do this.
Something like this:
template:
- sensor:
- name: "Heat pump (heating)"
unique_id: heatpump-heating
state: >
{% if states('sensor.heatpump_operating_mode_numeric')|int == 19 %}
{{ states('sensor.smappee_kwh_heatpump')|float }}
{% else %}
{{ states('heatpump-heating') }}
{% endif %}
unit_of_measurement: kWh
device_class: energy
state_class: total_increasing
But this won’t work because it will make the template jump to the new kWh value as soon as the heatpump switches back to “heating” mode.
I hope someone here can help me out and tell me how to make this work?
