Tips on creating a template sensor that counts number of climate that have hvac_action: heating

Configuration
1

Hi

So i have 12 thermostats and i want to make a small badge showing how many climate entitys that are actually heating, for this i can use hvac_action: heating when its not heating, the hvac_action: idle

For motion sensors i have previously did this like this

number_of_motion_sensors_on:
        friendly_name: "Number of Motion Sensors On"
        icon_template: mdi:run
        value_template: >-
          {% set count = namespace(value=0) %}
          {% for entity_id in state_attr('binary_sensor.all_motion_sensors','entity_id') %}
            {% if (states(entity_id) == 'on') %}
              {% set count.value = count.value + 1 %}
            {% endif %}
          {% endfor %}
          {{ count.value }}

This gives me almost what i want, but it using the state on climate, since this only have heat available it gets wrong

{{ states.climate | selectattr('state', 'eq', 'heat') | list | length }}
