In the energy dashboard, today, I’m using Gaz section as I don’t have gaz in house. But I would like to see a EV section or a way to add a big consumer of energy (could be not EV).
Also from now, I have one device representing the consumption of the EV but this not looks great. I can remove it from the view, it’s ok but may be there are possible enhancement.
I second this request, however I don’t have the workaround mis-appropriating the Gas, since I’m also (planning to) use Gas.
The EV is a bigger drain than the rest of my house, and it really skews the data, so I would like to keep it separate.
Maybe it should be configurable, as I imagine a heatpump would also warrant being displayed separately. The extremely seaonal load of the heatpump skews the data and makes it difficult to make educated judgements on the energy usage of the rest of the house.
I’d argue that it would add unnecessary complexity. We already have a section for devices that the ev charger is. There are many other things missing that are potentially more beneficial, such as device chaining, etc. 
I would also support 2 additional electric consumers for readability (EV + HP).
I totally agree, that using “regular” individual devices for both would marginalize the rest of my tracked devices (washing machine, Coffee machine, …)
I have a EV charger that is public. I get paid when someone charges on my charger.
I could have it as an individual device, but then I have no insight on the costs (or better: gains 
)
For the moment, I have it configured as a “grid returned” sensor.
But this screws up my graphs
So either we should be able to set specific gains/costs on individual devices - and be able to show them in the graph (this would be a generic solution for most cases)
OR
We should have the possibility to add an “EV charger” (not an EV)
This is my 2 cents…
Agreed, this would be a very welcome change. Having EV as part of house loads is not good because it consumes so much more. Makes the graphs useless.
Edit, 30th August, almost the whole month:
As the situation with HP or EV is bit unsatisfactory, I propose to introduce a second list for individual devices. I guess its’s technically simple and every user could decide what device to add to List A or B. Probably there is no need to give it a definate purpose. Its just that the scale reads differently if big consumers are combined in a seperate list of individual devices. Hope this was understandable?

Hi,
I’m also using Gaz section to monitor my EV’s charges so I can see how many kWh and how much it costs because I can’t have this information if I add my EV in Individuals Devices.
The problem I encountered was that the total cost was incorrect as it adds Grid + Gaz + Water.
So I created a sensor to subtract EV’s charges from Grid.
Finally my Energy dashboard shows : Subtracted Sensor for Grid + Gaz (EV) + Water.
It would be very useful to add an EV section similar to Gaz so Gaz could be used if necessary.
And an option to subtract this EV section directly from grid should be even better
