Current Power Usage

[JörgWende]

The API provides summary values per day, week, month and year. But what about the current value as I can see it in ViCare (energy cockpit, analytics)

thanks

Hello Jörg,

My choice was this solution: the Current value (kW) is the time derivative of the summary values (kWh)

For Home Assistant, there is an integration available for this purpose:

The values I obtained corresponded quite well with those shown ViCare app. (I am still testing this).

If you need to code it, then you could just calculate the difference of two consecutive values and divide that by the time interval. 

With kind regards,

René
