Describe the issue you are experiencing

I have the "Energy distribution today" component placed on a normal dashboard and it generally works fine. But if i leave the browser tab open over the night (new day), it just shows the latest values from yesterday (ie. values from midnight), but does not update to the today values.

All other components around it update just fine.

See attached video: values update after a full page reload and then it works fine until midnight.

Just found this from 2021, same issue https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/10269

Do you have an energy date selection card on your dashboard? I believe this behavior is typically handled by that card.

Hmm actually I am not sure.

[karwosts]

Out of curiousity, does it work correctly if you just leave the default energy dashboard open overnight (and not a custom panel?)

[DanielWeigl]

@karwosts sorry, did just see your question yesterday - I tried to open the /energy tab over night, and it behaves the same way. ie. it stays on yesterday, but in this context it is consistent, because all the stats, numbers and the datepicker around it are also from yesterday.

In the other case where it is embedded in a live data view, it would make sense to show the current (ie todays) values

I'm experiencing the same issue with type: energy-usage-graph card. It keeps showing the date it was opened.

The no-refresh issue with embedded energy cards still exists. (Core 2024.10.1). Please fix it.
