@WickedInvi from your message, these value really zero and only total_energy_consumption have value, i'm not sure with the reason now,
some question need to confirm:
I am not sure if it works with Midea app, NetHome Plus was the recommended with the AC. In the App no readings are available. In about device on the app the Terminal Barcode is P0000000Q1AC93C4239F04, I need to look for the documents from it to confirm if that is the SN or something else.
thanks, it should be the SN, just checked with it, seems it's a very old device? the SN also not match with the latest SN format.
so for this total_energy_consumption is always the same value for your device and don't have any changes, as this device not support this feature, it required new HW module to support it.
I bought 4 AC device in the year of 2021(in China), also not support these power/energy feature, all the value is 0.
This year I just replaced a old Midea air conditioner that my parents had used for at least fifteen years with a new one, it support this feature, and i can got the value from both Midea app and current HomeAssistant integration.
so I think it should not a bug, and just this device not support it, as your device don't have this hardware module to support this software feature.
@WickedInvi
We just purchased in July, I've checked SN on the side 540E923820624220130358, it's Rotenso Imoto I50Xi R14 Total is on going and working.
thanks, both SN should got the same lua script result, it's the same one, and not have power/energy support. the feature should based on device hardware module, so I'm not sure with it.
and from the HEX packets that device query and response, we can only found total_energy_consumption have value, and no current/realtime value. is this total_energy_consumption value works as the expected result?
maybe you can contact with the seller to confirm this feature support.
I had it connected to a smart plug to test consumption and it seemed accurate enough, but it is strange because I would expect that to know the total it needs to know what is using. I remember reading about the module, and even had it saved somewhere I think to buy at a later day. I do think he would know I will close this for now as seems like it a hardware/device issue rather than the integration.
Thank you for your help.
yes, if the device hardware not send these data to us, we can't parse and save these data for you to view.

The description of problem
I've had this issue for a while but never got around to reporting, I seen someone mention in another closed issue that the AC might not have the capabilities, but in that issue the return for all total_energy_consumption, current_energy_consumptionn, and realtime_power was 0. I have total_energy_consumption but realtime_power and current_energy_consumption are 0. Is this something that is possibly a bug or the AC does not sent the data?
