Capacity grid Flow doesn't work if highest per day is not received #132

I have implemented the Capacity part of grid tariff without using Tibber. You can see my setup on issue #128. I provide the nodes that needs Tibber data with data from my own sensors and Elvia.

Currently, Elvia API is not working and returns 404 Not found. I've reported a bug on this already. After I rebooted my HA server, data that was earlier sent to Calculate values node is lost, and since Elvia API is not working it complains about "No highest per day". This also results in no values being returned from node. This makes the flow not control my devices so that I have to make sure I don't go above 5kWh manually.

It would be a great improvement if the code would support this and still control my devices so that I do not go above the limits.
