Example Dashboards

This folder contains ready-to-use Home Assistant dashboards for the Norway Electricity Prices integration, ordered from simple to complex.

Tip: Every example uses NO3 (Trondheim) as the price area. Replace every occurrence of no3 with your area code (no1, no2, no4, or no5) to match your region.

How to install a dashboard

  1. In Home Assistant go to Settings → Dashboards → Add Dashboard.
  2. Open the new dashboard and click ⋮ → Edit Dashboard → Raw configuration editor.
  3. Paste the contents of the chosen YAML file and click Save.

Customisation ideas

  • Combine dashboards: Copy individual cards from different files into a single dashboard to create your own mix.
  • Add automations panel: Pair any dashboard with the automation examples in docs/automations.md.
  • Multiple areas: Duplicate cards for different price areas to compare regions on the same dashboard.
  • Theme colours: Adjust the color values in gauge segments and chart color_threshold entries to match your HA theme.
