@Doekse, what changed on the 18th of February.
Since that date my Youless does not report kWh anymore. It says that the device only reports realtime energy usage.
When you have firmware updates on auto update, and you don’t allow beta updates, this Feb. 17th update can be a candidate cause:
The last Youless app update was Dec. 7, 2024 btw.
Hi @Doekse,
When is Qubino 3 Phase meter properly supported? A Z-wave device that isn’t even in your list
As noted on the Qubino App Store page, the app is no longer actively maintained since Qubino joined Shelly. However, the code is publicly available. I’ll check with the Shelly team to see if we can work something out.

It would be great to add Tesla Energy as well

We’ve had multiple conversations with Tesla about teaming up for Homey Energy, but they are very keen on keeping people in their app and doing all the energy management over there unfortunately.
What he’s talking about is actually a design choice made by Homey, not by Shelly or Qubino. Most other smart home platforms give you the flexibility to decide how specific energy data is used, so the fact that Qubino uses a certain Z-Wave class shouldn’t really affect how the graphs are displayed.
For instance, I was able to set up my Qubino 3-Phase meter as connected to an EV charger, and the energy panel even updated the overview image to reflect that—so it’s clearly recognizing the user input. However, it doesn’t go a step further to let you define whether the device is consuming or producing energy.
My Youless LS120P1 only reported kW in the Homey Energy app.
I upgraded to Youless app 4.5.1 and had to reinstall the Youless LS120P1 to get the right names for the capabilities. Now also kWh is shown.
For the Qubino device to appear in the Homey Energy tab, specific capabilities need to be defined within Homey. This is unrelated to how we interpret their Z-Wave classes. To use the device as a whole-home energy meter in Homey, the driver must include the cumulativeImportedCapability, cumulativeExportedCapability, and the cumulative property. These need to be added to the device’s driver in the Qubino Homey App.
When it comes to solar panels, the process is slightly different. You can manually select “What’s plugged in?” and choose “solar panels”. This option exists because some solar setups, such as balcony solar systems, are measured through a smart plug rather than a dedicated inverter.

The 3phase meter is picked up as a whole-home meter without any input. So it was registering my car charging as my whole house consumption (in the top graph). Hope to use a Homey dongle for that 
And I think because I defined the ‘Plugged in >> EV Charger’ on the device itself the picture at the top of the Energy screen changes to a open garage door with a car/charger. And when I changed under the Advanced Settings >> Energy >> Tracks total home energy consumption >> No it stopped registering as the meter for the whole house.
So I understand because you are modular with Apps that the manufacturer has to change something to make it work as a individual consumer in the Energy tab? Because it creates great charts in the Insights page.
@Doekse I am using my own app Glowmarkt App for Homey | Homey to connect my UK smart meter with Homey Energy tab. Currently my energy tab looks like this:
so the meter is showing up but the ‘Grid’ is reading 0 Wh and the ‘Home’ is reading - kWh. I’m not clear what those are meant to show. Is there something else I should tweak in the app to make it work better with Homey Energy?
Your device should have a kW and a kWh capability with ID’s measure_power and meter_power.
Thanks. I’ll take another look at the API and see if I can find kWh
Hi Jonathan,
Awesome to see your app already working with Homey Energy!
If you scroll up a bit, you’ll find a similar issue reported with Qubino devices. For the meter values to show up in the Homey Energy overview, the device does indeed need to report a kWh value to Homey. You can read more about how that works here.
Let me know once it’s fixed and I’ll add it to the list! 
I have the p1ib App för Homey | Homey smartmeter that currently only show imported but not exported energy. Hopefully soon the developer can adopt to required capabilities..
Question: what required capabilities are needed to show exported energy?
Feel free to message the developer to see if they’re open to making the changes.
As for the requirements, check the message right above yours 
Thanks Abe. I’ve been scratching my head a bit trying to match up what Homey Energy needs with what the API for the Glowmarkt meter unit provides.
The API for the Glowmarkt doesn’t provide a cumulative ever-increasing energy usage figure so I think I’m going to have to maintain that myself in the app. There is an end point that looks like it will return energy consumption in kWh over an ‘aggregation period’, with the period configurable down to a minimum of 1 minute. So I guess I need to call that every minute and add it every time to a value that I maintain in my app for the cumulative meter_power capability.
Does that sound right?
I’m not really fond of this solution. I have some PBTH devices based on the Youless and besides that, best some flows with interaction with energy.
It will break all these flows and PBTH devices
I don’t now any other solution.
PBTH devices can be repaired without any data loss if you repair the PBTH device within minutes.
And there is a script to repair flows after repairing a device.
Well, i did do it. Removed the P1.
After re-installing it appeared coreect in the energy tab. Also repairing PBTH devices was easy and did the trick.
Spend some time on reparing my flows, scripting is not my thing, now everything is ok again.
Thanks a lot, I would not have thought on this solution
