Solution for Gas in kWh #56

Closed Ciri42 closed 2 years ago

Ciri42 commented 2 years ago

1m3 of gas is about 10kWh in energy, the exact figure depends a bit on the actual gas source but 10 is quite a good approximation (e.g. https://www.killmybill.be/nl/bereken-gasverbruik/). Suggestions: If possible it would be great to multiply the P1 gas-readings by 10 and then the unit kWh that eve is showing is the valid unit. It also allows easy comparison with the electricity energy consumption. Much better than m3 in fact.

Sorry, but I want to reflect the value reported by the meter. Here in the Netherlands natural gas is actually charged per m3, not per kWh. The price per m3 is adjusted ("corrected") with a factor for the caloric value of the gas, but I've never seen a conversion to kWh.
