I agree, that is also my situation (negative values are return to grid).

Not sure how this goes well.... and what you are measuring....

When you deliver power back to the grid, the kWh counter is decrementing?

And how do you get an overview of the total Usage / Delivery per day/month/year?

Would it not be much better to use a P1 sensor for this? You could program this in dzVents.
Just update Usage1/Delivery1 (T1/R1) and keep the other values zero

I will see if I can add a kWh sensor as Grid meter in the dashboard, this makes sense for users without solar panels and smart meter.
But when you do have solar panels and no smart meter, I would definitely go the P1 way

- More language translations (not all are already translated on Transifex yet except for Dutch)
- Configured Currency sign is now also being used in the web interface (Settings->Location, default set to €)
- Fixed an issue when the flow was not displayed as lines and a battery was being charged from the grid
- When the dashboard has not been configured yet, a message is displayed
- Text spacing has been adjusted for the 3 custom widgets, should now display correctly 3 lines of text when applicable
- Now possible to use a kWh sensor for the Grid Widget

@eddieb, see a few posts up from Walter, you have to set the correct values for electricity, water and gas if you are not using enever or have a dynamic energy sensor. Next select your dynamic price sensor (or set this to internal to use the manual configured values) in the same setup screen (meters)

For those (as me) who use a general kWh meter to measure the power/energy from grid, I've just written a LUA script that updates a virtual P1 meter (that you have to create from Domoticz -> Setup -> Hardware) from an existing general kWh meter.
Just fetch the file script_device_power2p1.lua from https://github.com/CreasolTech/domoticz_lua_scripts and edit the first 4 variables in the begin of file.
For any suggestions to improve the script, feel free to write me with a personal message or a GitHub issue.

The current power charging/discharging the battery, in watts. Positive values indicate charging, negative values indicate discharging.

The costs will be calculated from the time you enabled this function. So probably showing wrong total values the first day. The next day it will start showing correct values.
