Hello and sorry you're having issues. Is the entity still enabled? As part of the latest release, this entity is disables by default which might need re-enabling.

Are other current entities updating correctly as this data is retrieved at the same time as other current entities.

Is it the demand or the current consumption data you're having issues with? The value you originally gave is the value you gave to the demand sensor in your follow up response, so want to make sure I'm concentrating on the right sensor. The demand sensor shows the current grid draw. Do you have any errors in your logs? Do you see demand in the app? If you enable the diagnostic entity - https://bottlecapdave.github.io/HomeAssistant-OctopusEnergy/entities/diagnostics/#current-consumption-data-last-retrieved - is the value updating at the interval that you've configured in your settings?

I had these sensors freeze on the 12 Feb 2025:
sensor.octopus_energy_electricity_xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxx_current_total_consumption
sensor.octopus_energy_electricity_xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxx_current_demand
sensor.octopus_energy_electricity_xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxx_current_accumulative_consumption

I found today my Octopus Mini had locked up, after attempting to re-add it to my account, it came back on-line and the live reads started to appear in my Octopus App.

With in 20 mins I was getting readings in HA.

Might be unrelated but thought it was worth a mention.
