The `ohmconnect` sensor will show you the current [OhmConnect](https://www.ohmconnect.com/) status for the given OhmConnect ID.
|
|
|
|
OhmConnect monitors real-time conditions on the electricity grid. When dirty and unsustainable power plants turn on, our users receive a notification to save energy. By saving energy at that time, California does not have to turn on additional power plants and California's energy authorities pay you for that.

|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
You can find your OhmConnect ID on the [OhmConnect API settings page](https://login.ohmconnect.com/api/v2/settings). It's the string after the last `/` in the URL, e.g., for the URL `https://login.ohmconnect.com/verify-ohm-hour/AbCd1e` your ID is `AbCd1e`.
|
|
|
|
To enable the OhMConnect sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: ohmconnect
|
|
id: YOUR_OHMCONNECT_ID
|
|
```
|
