The energy dashboard needs an energy sensor. The ELWA does not provide this information.
But you can use this integration to calculate the energy from the power value (Aktueller Verbrauch): Please note that the sample time of the mypv integration is 10 seconds whereas the ELWA will change the actual power more often. So the calculated energy is only an estimation.
If you need more accurate data you may query the current power with modbus (register 1000) and use the integration above.
