 ## Energy dashboard: Self-sufficiency
 
+The energy dashboard as a new gauge, added by [@TillFleisch]: Self-sufficiency.
+
+This gauge tells you how self-sufficient your home is. The more you take from
+the grid, the more the value will decrease.

+Increasing this value can be done by lowering your consumption from the grid,
+for example, by using a washing machine when the sun is shining or by creating
+automations that turn off devices when solar production is low. Another more
+drastic way is by adding more solar panels or battery storage.
