How to calculate daily power consumption from DSMR sensors?

Hi All, I’m quite new at HASS, but got my configuration to work. Much easier with HASS than with other Domotic’s! Compliments for the developers! Part of my configuration is the DSMR component which sensors actual power consumption, and the total power consumption. I am looking for a way to keep track of daily power consumption: Subtract the values of total power consumption at midnight and the value at the midnight before. But I could not find a way to access the historic value. Perhap…

And it sounds exactly the kind of outcome I’m looking for, awesome.

Cheers for the direction!!!
