I can not find this value in tags to be used in flows, any idea why? Want to have today, week and month.

A bit overkill perhaps, but if you were to use [PELS | Homey](https://homey.app/a/com.barelysufficient.pels) I could add tags like these. It already have some flows/tags that augments what Homey Energy provides directly.

I think the issue is that the energy cost values are not available as regular tags in Homey. If you want to use the costs for today, this week, and this month in flows, you may need to use the Energy flow cards or another way to expose those values.
