Is there a way I can easily see the total power consumption of my house in the Homey app? I have a Homey Pro 2023, and basically all my lights are connected to Z-Wave relays with power monitoring. In the app I can just see how much power a device is consuming right now, but I can’t seem to find a way to visualize either of these:

- the total amount of power ALL my devices are consuming on average (per day/week)
- how much a given device is consuming per month

I was hoping that the Insights area would give me good insights that would help me make better usage decisions, but at the moment it’s pretty useless for me.

Have you looked at [[APP][Pro] Power by the Hour: Insights per hour, day, month and year](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-power-by-the-hour-insights-per-hour-day-month-and-year/20535)

And for the real total I would advise a central meter, dont know if your energy supplier provides the info like fe in many European households the P1 port is usable from the DSMR meter. [Homey App Store](https://homey.app/en-gb/apps/browse/#filter?query=P1&platform=local)

I’ve installed the app and will play with it.  
Having said that, none of these solutions are ideal. I mean, Homey is already receiving all the information about how much power each of my device is consuming, so I don’t think I should need an external device (or even app) to get to the most basic useful information. 🤷🏼

Homey is a toolbox, not a consumer device. So it gives you tools you can use to full fill your wishes.
