Today, Homey Energy has been released out of beta, and it looks very good!

So far, I am really happy with the new features, but there is only a price option for energy taken from the grid, there is no option to set a price for energy delivered to the grid.

The total energy cost shown does not reflect the actual total price. Is there an option being developed for a future update to also set the price for energy delivered?

I’m happy dynamic prices will be added later on, since that’s the type of contract i use at the moment.

I totally agree with you. For now the price display is useless to me. My costs from the energy supplier do not match the costs shown in Homey at all. Hopefully this will be added later.

Just use the superior [Power by the Hour app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-power-by-the-hour-insights-per-hour-day-month-and-year/20535), and create an energy dashboard I’d say.

Sorry but telling to not use the Homey software they worked on for many months is not the right answer.  
If they can improve a few little things it will be great software.

My setup:

- electricity and gas using Homewizard P1.
- water using Homewizard Water meter
- I have no solar panels nor a battery.

The devices Smart Meter and Water meter work find in the devices section.

I cannot seem to see however the same things as advertised.

- I only see Top consumers “kWh”
- I cannot see current usage (now) “W”
- For Gas it consistently says “no data”
- For Water it consistently says “no data”.

I’m on:

- Homey Pro (2023)
- v12.4.1
- App version v9.2.0.1709

Here’s a screenshot:

I already tried resetting all energy data (delete data) so ensure that I have a clean slate, but the result is the same.

For me, this way the Energy tab is useless.

Does anyone have the same challenge? Could you solve it → how?

Regarding your HomeWizard water meter: when you go to the device’s settings (cog wheel) and tap Advanced Settings, under Energy, is the toggle enabled saying that the device measures the total energy usage of your house?

The same applies to your P1 meter.

And, did you wait for the a new day? Some total values start to appear a day after adding afaik. But I could be wrong.

🙏 Hi @Peter_Kawa I had lots of data already from the beta period, but still the device did not show anything. After a reset, again, only the power consumption was updated. @SunBeech gave me the path forward for finding the answer. Now I have energy charts for Electricity, Gas as well as Water consumption.

Probably after all other things that aren’t yet in the web app (web app has a very low priority for Athom).

Any possibility to configure what sensors that should be used/active?

Have both my inverters total PV generation integrated from Home assistant due to the Goodwe app wont read from one of the inverters.

Want that combined sensor to be the generated solar energy

Some more details are needed to answer your question.  
Which HA app are you using?  
Do you import both inverters a one device or as two devices?  
You will need two devices, each with its measure\_power/meter\_power capability and device class ‘solarpanel’.  
Then both solar production should be summed up in HomeyEnergy.

I import both inverters with the Home assistant app as sensors.  
Or actually 3 sensors, have made a combine in HA for the total as well.

Would like to have the Batt SOC & the total PV generated.  
The data is there and live, just want the posibility to show it in Homey Energy.

Official HA app or community app?

If it’s the second one, then start reading here:

> [@\[APP\]\[Pro\] Home Assistant - Community App](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-home-assistant-community-app/71477/1228):
>
> This is only for smart meters: Just select device class and nothing else. Just the device with its measure\_power an meter\_power capability should enough. It’s acting like a consumer, but energy is counted negative as production. And this all is covered in your house. The smart meter will only see the way from/to the grid.

Add a custom device, add the entities as measure\_power and meter\_power (main capability, not as subcapability). Then set device class to solarpanel in device settings.  
For further questions about HA community app, please use the linked thread.

Thank’s Ronny

It’s the comunity i’m using.

Managed to get the Total PV power into the energy tab.

How do i configure the battery?  
Have activated that i have a bettery, and gets visible in the app.

But how do i configure the battery entity?

Currently you only get the battery device showing the SoC and the animation of energy flow. So all right I would say.

</div>

but the Soc is not the same as the inverter PV as it shows now.  
I have only configured one entity in the “repair” settings.

Should not the battery be a stand alone entity?

Yes, battery should be standalone device, because it needs a measure\_battery capability and device class ‘homebattery’.  
So perhaps you set the home battery flag but the measure\_battery capability is not the one from your battery.

Here is the HowTo 🙃

Thank’s!  
I actually found the guide, think i solved it.

Your app is awesome, sent you a small contribution 🙂

Now it’s only the import export i have left to fix.
