Added 6 new sensors for yesterday/today/tomorrow aggregated price
levels and ratings, following the same calculation logic as existing
current/next interval sensors.
New sensors:
- yesterday_price_level, today_price_level, tomorrow_price_level
- yesterday_price_rating, today_price_rating, tomorrow_price_rating
Implementation details:
- Added DAILY_LEVEL_SENSORS and DAILY_RATING_SENSORS in sensor/definitions.py
- Implemented _get_daily_aggregated_value() in sensor/core.py using
existing aggregate_level_data() and aggregate_rating_data() helpers
- Extended icon support in entity_utils/icons.py for dynamic icons
- Added icon_color attributes in sensor/attributes.py with helper
functions _get_day_key_from_sensor_key() and _add_fallback_timestamp()
- Complete translations in all 5 languages (de, en, nb, nl, sv):
* Standard translations: sensor names
* Custom translations: description, long_description, usage_tips
Impact: Users can now see aggregated daily price levels and ratings
for yesterday, today, and tomorrow at a glance, making it easier to
compare overall price situations across days and plan energy consumption
accordingly. Sensors use same aggregation logic as hourly sensors for
consistency.
Renamed internal sensor keys to be more explicit about their temporal scope:
- current_price → current_interval_price
- price_level → current_interval_price_level
- price_rating → current_interval_price_rating
This naming makes it clearer that these sensors represent the current
15-minute interval, distinguishing them from hourly averages and other
time-based calculations.
Updated across all components:
- Sensor entity descriptions and handlers (sensor.py)
- Time-sensitive entity keys list (coordinator.py)
- Config flow step IDs (config_flow.py)
- Translation keys in all 5 languages (de, en, nb, nl, sv)
- Custom translations (entity descriptions, usage tips)
- Price level/rating lookups (const.py, sensor.py)
- Documentation examples (AGENTS.md, README.md)
Impact: Sensor entity IDs remain unchanged due to translation_key system.
Existing automations continue to work. Only internal code references and
translation structures updated for consistency.
Added comprehensive volatility analysis system:
- 4 new volatility sensors (today, tomorrow, next_24h, today+tomorrow)
- Volatility classification (LOW/MODERATE/HIGH/VERY HIGH) based on price spread
- Configurable thresholds in options flow (step 6 of 6)
- Best/Peak price period filters using volatility and price level
- Price spread calculation in get_price service
Volatility sensors help users decide if price-based optimization is worthwhile.
For example, battery optimization only makes sense when volatility ≥ MODERATE.
Period filters allow AND-logic combinations:
- best_price_min_volatility: Only show cheap periods on volatile days
- best_price_max_level: Only show periods when prices reach desired level
- peak_price_min_volatility: Only show peaks on volatile days
- peak_price_min_level: Only show peaks when expensive levels occur
All 5 language files updated (de, en, nb, nl, sv) with:
- Volatility sensor translations (name, states, descriptions)
- Config flow step 6 "Volatility" with threshold settings
- Step progress indicators added to all config steps
- Period filter translations with usage tips
Impact: Users can now assess daily price volatility and configure period
sensors to only activate when conditions justify battery cycling or load
shifting. Reduces unnecessary battery wear on low-volatility days.
- Revised various phrases for clarity and consistency in Dutch (nl.json) and Swedish (sv.json) translations.
- Changed terms from "woning" to "huis" in Dutch for better contextual accuracy.
- Improved readability and grammatical correctness in both languages.
- Ensured all user-facing strings are updated to reflect the latest terminology and phrasing.
- Updated keys from "cents" to more user-friendly terms for current, next, and previous prices.
- Added state descriptions for price levels and ratings, including categories like "very cheap," "cheap," "normal," "expensive," and "very expensive."
- Introduced new average price sensors for the next 1 to 12 hours.
- Added price trend sensors for 1 to 12 hours with states indicating rising, falling, or stable trends.
- Ensured consistency in naming conventions across English, Norwegian, Dutch, and Swedish translations.
