I have a template sensor that tells me what the share of electricity generated by the PV panels is that is used by my electric heater. Last winter it worked fine but now I’m all of a sudden getting errors (0.115.2)
Here’s the error msgs and the yaml for the sensor. Weird thing is in the Dev > template section the value is correctly computed!
