The `duke_energy` sensor platform allows you get the previous days usage for all of your Duke Energy smart meters.
## {% linkable_title Setup %}
You will only have access to meters listed in your account at [Duke Energy Usage](https://www.duke-energy.com/my-account/usage-analysis).
This supports both electric and gas meters. Along with previous days usage, each sensor will have attributes for the previous bills total usage and average usage.
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
To enable the sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: duke_energy
username: YOUR_DUKE_USERNAME
password: YOUR_DUKE_PASSWORD
```
{% configuration %}
username:
description: Your Duke Energy username
required: true
type: string
password:
description: Your Duke Energy password
required: true
type: string
{% endconfiguration %}
<p class='note'>
Meter usage isn't updated until mid-morning. Prior to updating your meter will report 0 for usage starting at midnight. The API is only called to update every 2 hours from startup time.
