For me, without this app Homey would just be a expensive box to control lights. So this surely is an essential app, which actually enables me to save euros.

Every looks OK but I found a differences between the JSON file from Enerver and the “Provide prices JSON …” cards.

To see the differences between FE and ZP, I had made the left widget on my dashboard.

The green data was always the same.
In centen from the app in from JSON.
16:00 29.81 and 29.10
17:00 32.64 and 31.93
are not smal differences

The app is reset.

For me (FrankEnergy NL) the PBTH prices match with the price from the FE app, and also with the actual Enever price.

Only for information.

Sadly there are now this differences in data.

Also by /eerlijkverbruik.nl are thise values equal

Live by enever 19:00 Frank Energie : € 0.325 incl. BTW

So either your PBTH markups are incorrectly set, or Enever is wrong :wink:

Enever is indeed wrong for Frank Energie.
By Zonneplan is it correct.

But that is further off topic here. :wink:

Edit

I’m now feeling a bit dizzy about the price that Frank Energie itself uses.
21:00 → 0.29 in the app and 0.283 (= enever) op the site.
Tomorrow I look further in to it by FE for the costs.

This flow never started tonight and my car didn’t get charged. The values of
“Vässla ska vara färdigladdad” was set to 07. Anyone know why?

Which version of the app do you have?

V6.6.5 since yesterday afternoon. I plugged the car in around midnight.

Might be possible the variable is not accepted as value there.
Try entering the hour number directly, to see if that solves it.
Add a timeline message to “Annars” as well, to see what the flow is doing

I actually used this exakt flow for q couple of weeks but this time was the first time it failed. I’ll add a timeline message there, good advice :slight_smile:

I don’t fully understand why there’s a period-variable in the card though. I would have better use for “the X cheapest hours before " o’clock”.

I have a price difference between PBTH Estonia v6.6.4 and two other apps at 21:30.

  • PBTH Estonia shows Spot (./1h/2h): €0.2556/€0.1989/€0.1372.
  • Happy Spot price and Heating controller both have a current spot price of 0.1372

From this perspective, is there a time zone issue since last weekend all changed to winter times?

CORRECTION
I did not see that PBTH did not update prices for 3 hours.
So I wrongly assumed a time zone issue.
It is just that PBTH is not updated.

Upgrading to PBTH v6.6.5 worked, apologies :relieved:

Question:

Could someone help me figure out how to generate a report in this app showing yesterday’s energy consumption? I’m looking for a breakdown that displays how much power each device used individually.

@Jan_Penning many thx for your kind donation! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::beers:

I’m trying to add TTF Leba pricing, but it looks like this gets stuck. No price update and time out when trying to add 21% VAT. More people with this issue?

UPDATE: I was able to add VAT and addional pricing, but still daily pricing is not being updated. What am I missing as electricity is working fine

It seems something has changed. Translated this AND-card says: the price is one of the 5 lowest in the upcoming 24 hours. But 24 is no longer accepted and needs to be a value between 6 and 10. This breaks my flows checking the lowest and highest hours.

The behaviour I expect if there are no prices published for the next day, that this card checks the next 24 availiable prices. At the time of writing only 14 hours are available, so this card should check if the current price is one of the 5 lowest of the 14 available hours.

This problem might relate to @Jones above.
