You can configure two types of sensors:

  • hours sensors to look at ecowatt level X hours in the future. You can look up to 96h at the moment.
  • days sensors to look at ecowatt level X days in the future. You can look up to 3d in advance at the moment. The days sensor value is the worst of all hours of that day.

Two sensors are generated by default: "now" (0 hours in advance) and "today" (0 days in advance).

An additional sensor exposing next downgraded period is also added by default (not configurable). It shows beginning of next period with tensions on the electricity network. During such a period, it shows the beginning of next hour.
