Hello I’m trying to figure out how to track my energy usage for my plugs that I have with homie or given time. Ideally a month, and see the current cost for that time. Based on the inputs of cost per kilowatt hour and the peak times that are assigned. Is there a way to do this with the homie Bridge or at all? Im Using 3rd reality smart plugs with energy montiering v2 Thank you

One option is to use the [Power by the Hour](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/com.gruijter.powerhour/Power-by-the-Hour/) app. And use it to create a Power Summarizer device. You can select for which plug you want to summarize the power values. It then tracks totals per hour, day, month and year.

Hi @Andrew_1 ,  
I hope, everything you need can be provided by [Power by the Hour App](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-power-by-the-hour-insights-per-hour-day-month-and-year/20535)  
It only collects from the time it is configured for the plugs or the complete house and works fine with dynamic electricity prices. If you have a PV installation, you can also calculate for those times, you are producing your own electricity, your internal variable costs for using your own energy.  
I just see, @SunBeech was faster. I just don’t want to throw my _hard work_ away. 🤣

That seems like it was what I was looking for but I currently have the bridge only, though the new pro light was enticing. Hahaha @Dirkh thank you for your hard work too!
