there's not really a way to do that, the energy dashboard was not meant to track fixed costs. There are some discussions on the community forum for if you really want to add it

If you're willing to give up energy calculating costs for you, you're free to calculate your own cost sensor and feed it to the board. You can increment that in any matter that you choose.
If it won't add to the board that's possibly because:
- it has the wrong unit
- it is not a
sensor - it has wrong
