Yes, lookup the RPN functions. Eg :

DEF:onpercent=/opt/Krokopool/RRDDatabases/Styrning_Varmare.rrd:Styrning_Varmare:AVERAGE
 CDEF:ontime=onpercent,86400,*,3600,/
 CDEF:totpower=ontime,3,*

This would give you "ontime" which is the total on time for the day in hours 
(this can be simplified to "onpercent,24,*" !), and "totpower" which would be 
the power consumed (I've assumed 3kW here) in kWH. It can also be better to do 
"totpower=onpercent,24,*,3,*" which is slightly more processing, but makes 
totpower independent of ontime - so less chance of making a mistake by changing 
one and fogetting to alter the other.
There is also (IIRC) the total function, so "VDEF:ontime,3,*,TOTAL" to get a 
single value that you can later [g]print.

Simply adjust to suit what you want out. In particular, I script all my graphs, 
so instead of using a hardcoded time period, I'll have the script insert a time 
period appropriate to the graph being drawn - I may use the same graph 
definition over several different time periods.

Also, I'd suggest not using terms like "now" and "now - 1 day". Better to 
specify start and end times which are integer multiples of the consolidated 
step period you intend to use. Eg, if you are working with a 300s 
copnsolidation, then start and end should be an integer multiple of 300; for 
1/2 hour consolidations it would be 1800 and so on. And make sure that 
end-start = pixels*step time so that the data isn't further processed to fit 
your graph.
RRD will try to do the right thing, but you can reduce the scope for mistakes 
by being explicit.
