@Rmb : Thank you very much !

(for the link : [Support Eva smart whole-household energy meter - #4 by user3951](https://community.homey.app/t/support-eva-smart-whole-household-energy-meter/140098/4) ).

It seems to work with the Advanced Virtual Device as sensor Gasmeter.

From this real district heating measuring device(Warmtelink) from smartgateways (app & manufacturer) :

With some flows doing the calculations (GJ value \*32.68 m3/GJ here in NL/Vattenfall) and calculating and updating the (advanced Virtual device ) gas sensor values every 150 seconds to this :

And finally I have this in the Energy Tab although I have district heating in GJ and not a real gas supply at all/usage with m3 😎

The price for 1 GJ is currently at Vattenfall NL (district heating) 40,97 € . So the gasprice per 1 m3 is around 1,254 € (=40,97€/GJ / 32,68GJ/m3 = 1.25€ / m3. That has to be configured in the settings of the Homey energy tab) incl VAT excluding basic infrastructure costs 827,90€ yearly

so thank you. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
