Yes also seeing this as soon as I updated to Home Assistant 2023.2:

I'm looking into this - for the moment it should be safe to just ignore this

[rupisaini]

I manage to fix the warning my changing

    _attr_state_class = SensorStateClass.TOTAL_INCREASING

to

    _attr_state_class = SensorStateClass.TOTAL

Code where I changed it

class Cost(SensorEntity):
    """Sensor usage for daily cost."""

    _attr_device_class = SensorDeviceClass.MONETARY
    _attr_has_entity_name = True
    _attr_name = "Cost (today)"
    _attr_native_unit_of_measurement = "GBP"
    _attr_state_class = SensorStateClass.TOTAL
    _attr_state_class = SensorStateClass.TOTAL
    _attr_last_reset = None # setting this value when we get reading

I just installed today and am getting the same error, Has the above PR been merged?
