The current energy-devices-graph card in the Energy Dashboard provides a great overview of individual energy consumption per device using bar charts with different colors. However, I would like to extend this functionality by introducing segments within each bar to show a breakdown of the energy sources contributing to each device's total consumption.
Proposed Functionality:
For each device in the energy-devices-graph, the bar should be segmented to represent the following categories:
Direct PV Consumption: The amount of energy consumed directly from solar production.
Battery Discharge Contribution: The energy provided from the battery.
Grid Consumption: The energy drawn from the grid.
Each segment should be color-coded within the existing bar, while the device-specific color (currently used) could remain as a border or background for consistency.
Benefits:
Provides deeper insights into energy usage patterns.
Highlights the efficiency of self-consumption and battery usage.
Enhances decision-making for optimizing energy utilization.
Example Use Case:
A user with PV panels, a battery storage system, and multiple energy-consuming devices (heat pump ...) wants to visualize how much energy each device draws from the PV system, battery, or the grid. For example:
Support for tooltips or legends to clarify segment details.
I believe this feature would significantly enhance the usability and analytical capabilities of the Energy Dashboard in Home Assistant. It would avoid the need to build the own dashboards with Influxdb/grafane (goal: "keep it simple").
