I get this message when trying to flash:

Could you provide your inverter-l1.yaml? It looks like there is no sensor with a powermeter identifier anymore.

Ah, thats true! I removed the mqqt and activated api. But must have made something wrong.
Do you have an example with api instead of mqqt ?

You can subscribe to HA entities using the homeassistant sensor component:

sensor:
 - platform: homeassistant
   id: powermeter
   name: "${name} smartmeter instantaneous power"
   entity_id: sensor.firstfloor_smartmeter_instantaneous_power
   filters:
     - throttle_average: 15s
