Configuration

:::tip Entity ID tip <home_name> is a placeholder for your Tibber home display name in Home Assistant. Entity IDs are derived from the displayed name (localized), so the exact slug may differ. Can't find a sensor? Use the Entity Reference (All Languages) to search by name in your language. :::

Initial Setup

After installing the integration:

  1. Go to Settings → Devices & Services
  2. Click + Add Integration
  3. Search for Tibber Price Information & Ratings
  4. Enter your API token from developer.tibber.com
  5. Select your Tibber home from the dropdown (if you have multiple)
  6. Click Submit — the integration starts fetching price data

The integration will immediately create sensors for your home. Data typically arrives within 1–2 minutes.

Adding Additional Homes

If you have multiple Tibber homes (e.g., different locations):

  1. Go to Settings → Devices & Services → Tibber Prices
  2. Click Configure → Add another home
  3. Select the additional home from the dropdown
  4. Each home gets its own set of sensors with unique entity IDs

Options Menu

After initial setup, open the configuration menu at:

Settings → Devices & Services → Tibber Prices → Configure

A menu appears with all configuration sections. Pick any section, adjust settings, then return to the menu — there is no required order. All sections have sensible defaults and can be revisited independently at any time.
