2 years ago It seems for Grid consumption: smartmeter_energy_ac_consumed Grid feed-in: smartmeter_energy_ac_sold which are required for the energy dashboard, you need to specify smartmeter: True
That's correct (and implied by nature of the entity names ;) Clarification in the readme is certainly worthwhile if its not 100% clear.
Once the entities are created, it seems HA core-2021.9.2 (Current) Wants the sensors to have a state class of state_class: total_increasing for all 3 sensors, easy fix using the customize.yaml, or could do via the gui...
You should't need to use customize.yaml. 0.9.7 adds that state_class attribute already to be compatible with HA 2021.9.x and is certainly the case on my system (IE, I can't reproduce what you're suggesting here).
Should the last_reset not be a date, eg 2021-01-01T00:00:01 Is that "homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)" line correct or hasnt been brought in properly??
This one needs investigation which I'll do. You could set to the epoch but refer previous comment ;)

I just installed 0.9.7,
Just a few questions.
1. It seems for Grid consumption: smartmeter_energy_ac_consumed Grid feed-in: smartmeter_energy_ac_sold which are required for the energy dashboard, you need to specify smartmeter: True
Please add those to sensors to the list on the github, as i was stumped for a few mins when they were not showing up, and as it wasnt in the list on github i presumed they were default entities, (Thankfully i do have a smart meter) but if you dont doesnt that mean you cant get those sensors, may need to mention that smartmeter is required under energy dashboard section.
Once the entities are created, it seems HA core-2021.9.2 (Current) Wants the sensors to have a state class of state_class: total_increasing for all 3 sensors, easy fix using the customize.yaml, or could do via the gui, sensor.fronius_total_energy: state_class: total_increasing last_reset: "homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)" sensor.fronius_smartmeter_energy_ac_consumed: state_class: total_increasing last_reset: "homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)" sensor.fronius_smartmeter_energy_ac_sold: state_class: total_increasing last_reset: "homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)"
The last_reset When i pull up the entity's in Developer Tools > States > Search for sensor.fronius_smartmeter_energy_ac_consumed Under attributes (for all three customized entities)
state_class: total_increasing attribution: Fronius Inverter Data unit_of_measurement: kWh friendly_name: Fronius SmartMeter Energy AC Consumed icon: mdi:solar-power device_class: energy last_reset: homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)
Should the last_reset not be a date, eg 2021-01-01T00:00:01 Is that "homeassistant.util.dt.utc_from_timestamp(0)" line correct or hasnt been brought in properly??
