Re: [SOLVED] how to deal with this kind of (solar-)data?

You are correct that if Power (expressed in W) is inserted once per hour, and stands for an hour, then the effective result is a same amount of Energy in Wh.
Would be interesting to check whether that matches the predicted Energy for that hour from forecast.solar.
Perhaps we should look with a different view, and just take the data from forecast.solar just as it is:
curious which type for Virtual Sensor is the most neutral, not adding anything to the received info.
Don't yet see anything better than "Custom Sensor, General" as applied in the other thread following this one.
