This release adds the option to import your historical energy usage.
ENGIE keeps hourly data on your electricity consumption, electricity
injection, and gas consumption. The integration can now pull all of that into Home
Assistant's long-term statistics.
What's new
-
Historical usage import. You can now backfill your historical energy data. A
new Import historical usage action (under ENGIE Belgium in
Developer tools > Actions) pulls every hour of electricity
consumption, electricity injection and gas consumption that ENGIE has
on record for your business agreements and adds it to Home Assistant's
long-term statistics. Ready to use in the Energy dashboard. Run the action again
and it'll only fetch new data. Need to (re-)fetch a specific period
instead? Optional start and end dates let you re-import a specific
time window. -
Turn on Include costs to also import your historical financial data (costs and compensation) for the energy used.
These feed directly into the Energy dashboard's cost
tracking. Off by default. -
Import during setup. Adding the integration or a new business
agreement now includes a Historical import step in the setup wizard. Just
tick the addresses you want imported and it'll import the data in the background
once the setup is done. -
No P1 meter? There's a blueprint for that. The README has a
one-click import button for a blueprint that runs the historical import
automatically once a day, at a time you choose. That way your Energy
dashboard stays up to date even without a P1 meter. -
Clearing old data. A separate action to remove the imported statistics for
a business agreement, so the next import starts fresh from scratch.
Upgrading
Coming from v0.11.0 or v0.10.x? You don't need to do anything. Your
accounts and settings carry over as is.
Want to try the historical import yourself?
- Go to Settings > Developer tools > Actions.
- Select Import historical usage under ENGIE Belgium.
- Choose your business agreement device as the target.
- Click Perform action.
Once the data's in, you'll still need to add it to the Energy dashboard
manually. See the Add to the Energy dashboard section of the
README
for instructions. If anything looks off, check Settings > System >
Repairs.
