#Energy dashboard visualization failure with battery

I have a Victron ESS system, which smartly charges from, and discharges to grid whenever it makes sense to do so. This seems to screw up HA visualizations. I would expect some minor issues with a setup like this, but look at the solar consumption in the hourly plot and compare to house use in energy distribution. The distribution graph totally lacks house-utilized solar.

As I understand the energy distribution card only looks at the daily summary of energy (not hourly), so the calculation comes up with a different result.

If you look at your ins/outs for a whole day, it's probably assuming your solar is charging your battery, and the grid inputs are being consumed.

#

It's not a perfect system as there isn't enough details given for it to know precisely which electrons go where, it just makes up a plausible scenario from a limited snapshot of your inputs and outputs

Wouldn't it then be a good idea to start considering the individual hours in the summary?

That seems like a possible solution

Should I create a github issue?
