A Home Assistant integration for importing data from Carbon Co-op's Powershaper service into Home Assistant. Provides three sensor entities:
- Gas meter (kWh)
- Electricity meter (kWh)
- Eletricity's carbon (kg)
The first two are available to be selected within the energy dashboard. (Future plans to address the display of carbon)
To set-up the integration, please copy the whole of the this project into your custom_components directory - there are future plans to have this integration go through the process of having it verified by HA.
Once added, restart your HA instance and you should be able to search for 'powershaper-monitor' within HA. Import your api token and click submit. This will configure the integration and setup three sensor entities.
NOTE: Upon configuration (or any subsequent restart of HA), the three sensor entities get (re-)initialized, which pull all available historic data from the Powershaper API for the given meters. As such, for meters that have data going back 5+ years, the data may take up to 10 minutes to fully appear within the Energy Dashboard; it's best if you do not restart your HA instance before you can see the data.
- Carbon Co-op's Powershaper API, which is used to fetch all the data from.
- Home Assistant's Documentation that helped in creating this integration.
- Home Assistant's Community for the rich eco-system of folks with plenty of examples and willingness to help.
- Carbon Co-op's team who helped with guidance around the requirements of the integration.
