It’s worth mentioning that Emoncms can convert Power to Energy (kWh) using the power\_to\_kwh input process.

In fact, it’s often best to use Emoncms input processing to convert power to kWh since often the inbuilt energy accumulator on some meters only reports energy increments on a not very granular scale e.g every 0.5kWh
