[Bldg-sim] EE4 heating source

[Alex Blue]

I am using EE4 to model an office building with natural gas RTU's but electric reheats at the zone level.   The reference building is only using natural gas for heating, rather than gas + electricity as in the proposed design.  I'm getting very nice energy savings overall, but since my electricity use for the proposed case is actually higher than that of the reference, the cost has not gone down much at all  (electricity is a lot more expensive here than natural gas.)

Is there any way to get EE4 to model the electric zone reheat capacity in its reference case?

I have the RTU's defined with electric zone reheat coils.

Thanks!

P.S. I'm new to the list, so hi!  Nice to meet you all.
