Template to flag energy usage beyond threshold

Goal: Establish alert notification if sump pump runs too frequently.
Equipment: Enerwave smart outlet that is capturing KWh of use in real time and feeding this back to HA.
Approach: I would like to establish an automation using template (maybe binary sensor?) + notification that establishes alerts when KWh exceeds threshold x over time period y.

Suggestions?

Thanks for reading this.
