They just have outdated information, both Home Assistant and SmartThings fully support smart plugs with Matter 1.3 energy reporting since early October. I guess they were not aware.

The good news in the Tapo forum thread is this part:
“Since the CSA Alliance released the Matter 1.3 standard in May 2024, TP-Link has been actively developing and certifying multiple Tapo models for Matter 1.3 functionality. As this is a new standard framework, adaptation will take some time. If all goes smoothly, we anticipate releasing firmware that supports Matter 1.3 by the end of 2024.”
