Original task statement excerpt

Goodwe goodwe-wifi-et: unsupported decode "float32"
### Describe the bug

After updating EVCC to the newly released version `v0.304.0`, the Goodwe integration fails to initialize during startup. The system throws a fatal error specifically related to the `goodwe-wifi-et` template, stating that `aa55udp` has an unsupported decode for `"float32"`. This causes the site to fail booting due to a missing grid meter instance.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Update EVCC to version `v0.304.0`.
2. Configure a grid meter using the `goodwe-wifi-et` template.
3. Start the EVCC service.
4. The system fails to start and displays the unsupported decode `"float32"` error in the UI and logs.

### Configuration details

```yaml
site:
  meters:
    grid: my_grid
    pv: my_pv
    battery: my_battery
....

    template: goodwe-wifi-et
