Rule for calculating the cost of electricity

Good afternoon.
I have recently started to master OpenHAB.
Please help me create a rule for calculating the cost per hour, day,month with sending data by email 5 days before the end of the month.
I use OpenHAB 3.2.0
there are item
Number PZEM_Voltage_V " Voltage[%.2f In]”
Number PZEM_Current_A “Current [%.2f A]”
Number PZEM_Power_W “Power[%.2f W / h]”
Number PZEM_Energy_WH “Energy [%.2f kW]”
Channels:
Type number : PZEM_Voltage_V " Voltage”
Type number : PZEM_Current_A”Current"
Type number : PZEM_Power_W “Power”
Type number : PZEM_Energy_WH “Energy”
He shows everything,counts everything.
I didn’t find anything suitable on the forum.
The data is saved in rrd4j

English please, this is an international community !

rule “MercuryIncotex201KWh_Past”
when
Time cron “0 0/5 * * * ?” //каждые 5 минут
then
var Number KWh = MercuryIncotex201KWh.state as DecimalType
var Number Kal
var Number Dif
var Number Pri

if (MercuryIncotex201KWh.state instanceof DecimalType) {
    Kal = MercuryIncotex201KWh.minimumSince(now.toDateMidnight.withDayOfMonth(1)).state as DecimalType //на начало месяца
    //Kal = (MercuryIncotex201KWh.minimumSince(now.toDateMidnight.withDayOfMonth(1).withMonthOfYear(1), "rrd4j").state as DecimalType) //на начало года  //https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/supportforen/openhab/33557-anf%C3%A4nger
    postUpdate(MercuryIncotex201KWh_Kalends, Kal.doubleValue )
   	Dif = KWh - Kal
   	postUpdate(MercuryIncotex201KWh_Consumption, Dif.doubleValue )
   	Pri = Dif * 3.62 //3,62 рубля за кВт*ч
   	postUpdate(MercuryIncotex201KWh_Consumption_Price, Pri.doubleValue )
   }

val CropDigital1 = String::format("%.2f", KWh.doubleValue ) //формат строки для sitemap
val CropDigital2 = String::format("%.2f", Dif.doubleValue ) //формат строки для sitemap	
postUpdate(MercuryIncotex201KWh_general, CropDigital1 + " (" + CropDigital2 + " в тек.мес.)" )	   

end
Good afternoon. Please help me to redo this rule for my needs.

Which part of it are you having trouble with?

This is probably the most important part for you

someItem.minimumSince(now.toDateMidnight.withDayOfMonth(1)).state

where “someItem” is a meter reading in kWh
minimumSince reaches back in time in a persistence database, and gets the lowest value since a particular date/time.
Since we are dealing with a meter reading that only gets bigger and bigger over time, minimumSince will give us the “start” meter reading at the beginning of that time period.

It’s then easy to subtract “start meter” from “today meter” to calculate consumption from past date until today.
By extension, you can do minimumSince for two different dates to get two readings for calculation, e.g. 1st day of last month to 1st day of this month.

First thing you have to do is work out which of your Items represents the ongoing meter reading, if any. kWh is bit muddled in your first post.
Then make sure you are persisting that Item.

Here is my rule
rule “PZEM_Energy_WH”
when
Time cron “0/45 * * * * ?” //каждые 45 сек
then
var Number KWh = PZEM_Energy_WH.state as DecimalType
var Number Kal
var Number Dif
var Number Pri

if (PZEM_Energy_WH.state instanceof DecimalType) {
    Kal = PZEM_Energy_WH.minimumSince(now.toDateMidnight.withDayOfMonth(1), "rrd4j").state as DecimalType //на начало месяца
    //Kal = (PZEM_Energy_WH.minimumSince(now.toDateMidnight.withDayOfMonth(1).withMonthOfYear(1), "rrd4j").state as DecimalType) //на начало года  //https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/supportforen/openhab/33557-anf%C3%A4nger
    postUpdate(PZEM_Energy_WH_Kalends, Kal.doubleValue )
   	Dif = KWh - Kal
   	postUpdate(PZEM_Energy_WH_Consumption, Dif.doubleValue )
   	Pri = Dif * 3.16 //3,16 рубля за кВт*ч
   	PZEM_Energy_WH_Consumption_Price.postUpdate(PZEM_Energy_WH_Consumption_Price, Pri.doubleValue )
   }

val CropDigital1 = String::format("%.2f", KWh.doubleValue ) //формат строки для sitemap
val CropDigital2 = String::format("%.2f", Dif.doubleValue ) //формат строки для sitemap	
postUpdate(PZEM_Energy_WH_general, CropDigital1 + " (" + CropDigital2 + " в тек.мес.)" )	   

end
it doesn’t work,what could be wrong with it

??
Not even a little clue for us?

You could try to find out.
Use logInfo()

Does your rule run at all?
Find out.
Are the values what you expect?
Find out.

Example

rule “PZEM_Energy_WH”
when
   Time cron “0/45 * * * * ?” //каждые 45 сек
then
   logInfo("test", "My rule has started")
   var Number KWh = PZEM_Energy_WH.state as DecimalType
   logInfo("test", "Variable KWh is {}", KWh)

   ... and so on

The logs are empty,most likely it does not start.

maybe there’s something missing here

Are you using openHAB version 1? It makes a difference. Most likely you do not want any imports at all.

openHAB version 3.2

You do not want any imports at all.

Does your xxx.rules file get loaded? Your openhab.log will tell you at boot time and after each edit.

What kind of file, I have a lot of them for some reason. with respect

As you are using OH3, “now” is a zonedDateTime object and you will have to work with different methods to the OH2 rule that you copied.

is there any way to fix it for version 3?

Yes. Example

Does not count the cost, per hour and per day and in the current month for some reason, can you help solve this problem? Thank you in advance.
