The ComEd Hourly Pricing program is an optional program available to ComEd electric subscribers which charges customers a variable rate for electricity supply based on current demand rather than a traditional fixed rate. Live prices are published here and also via an 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.
To use this sensor in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: comed_hourly_pricing
monitored_feeds:
- type: five_minute
- type: current_hour_average
{% configuration %} monitored_feeds: description: Feeds to monitor. required: true type: list keys: type: description: Name of the feed. required: true type: list keys: five_minute: description: The latest 5-minute price in cents. current_hour_average: description: The latest current hour average price in cents. name: description: Custom name for the sensor. required: false type: string offset: description: The pricing feeds provide only the supply cost of the electricity. The offset parameter allows you to provide a fixed constant that will be added to the pricing data to provide a more accurate representation of the total electricity cost per kWh. required: false default: 0.0 type: float {% endconfiguration %}
