I’m trying to use the battery part of the energy dashboard for my EV charger. The EV-charger only has a sensor that counts kWh per charging session. Every new charging session it starts at 0.
Below the EV charger sensor, above it a template sensor I created. I also created a dummy sensor.
The issue is that the dummy sensor shows up in the energy dashboard battery dropdown, the templated kWh sensor does not.
Dummy sensor:
- sensor:
- name: "Battery unload dummy"
unique_id: battery_unload_dummy
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
state_class: total
state: "{{0.0|float}}"
templated sensor for kWh total usage:
- name: "EVSE energieverbruik"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
unique_id: evse_energieverbruik
state_class: total
state: "{{ states('sensor.evse_energy')|float(0) }}"
availability: "{{ states('sensor.evse_energy')|is_number }}"
icon: mdi:ev-station
nope:
Some help would be greatly appreciated.
