Live prices are published [here](https://hourlypricing.comed.com/live-prices/) and also via an [API](https://hourlypricing.comed.com/hp-api/) which we can integrate as a sensor in Home Assistant. + +There are two price feeds available: the 5-minute price and current hour average price. + +```yaml +# Example configuration.yaml entry +sensor: + - platform: comed_hourly_pricing + monitored_feeds: + - type: five_minute + - type: current_hour_average +``` + +Configuration variables: + +- **monitored_feeds** array (*Required*): Feeds to monitor. + - **type** (*Required*): Name of the feed. + - **five_minute**: The latest 5-minute price in cents. + - **current_hour_average**: The latest current hour average price in cents. + - **name** (*Optional*): Custom name for the sensor. + - **offset** (*Optional*): The pricing feeds provide only the *supply* cost of the electricity.
