Energy dashboard not showing the correct value of gas usage

The problem

My energy dashboard is not showing the correct value of the gas usage. Its a total different value and I dont understand why. I have a template sensor that holds one state a day. This state represents the gas usage of the day before and is extracted from another sensor by automation and roughly transformed to m3 from kWh.

So the source field is: sensor.wtc_g_pc_tageswarmemenge_vortag_gesamt_we0 The destination field is: sensor.wtc_g_pc_tageswarmemenge_vortag_gesamt_we0_m3

The database contains the correct value for the sensor "wtc_g_pc_tageswarmemenge_vortag_gesamt_we0_m3" and also has only this one state, see:

state_id,domain,entity_id,state,attributes,event_id,last_changed,last_updated,created,old_state_id
215141,sensor,sensor.wtc_g_pc_tageswarmemenge_vortag_gesamt_we0_m3,4.468999999999999,"{""unit_of_measurement"":""m\u00b3"",""friendly_name"":""wtc_g_pc_tageswarmemenge_vortag_gesamt_we0_m3"",""state_class"":""total_increasing"",""icon"":""mdi:gas-cylinder"",""device_class"":""gas"",""updated_by"":""python_script.set_state""}",220642,2022-04-03 03:00:00.047849,2022-04-03 03:00:00.047849,2022-04-03 03:00:00.047849,177771

and also the sensor itself has the right value:

but the energy dashboard shows a complete different value:

I guess the state_class could be wrong. I try to set it to total and see if that helps.

no HA issue, solved it on my own, see: https://github.com/erikkastelec/hass-WEM-Portal/issues/19
