When you use the same sensor sensor.solarlog_power_ac twice you'll end up with strange results. Please find out if you have a sensor that gives you values for consuming from and producing to the grid. It could be the same sensor when it gives e.g. positive values for producing/exporting to the grid and negative values for consuming/importing from the grid. If you found such a sensor, please use it for grid_power_entity.

(If the polarity is the other way around, so positive values for consuming, then set also production_is_positive: false.)

Hope this helps you.

Thank You Gurbyz for the reply. Unfortunately I didn't found anything else what would work Only in this constellation (without arrow) are the results correct.
