I have not look at the IDF yet.
I did mentioned to you last time that the same storage Tank may have to appear twice in both the demand loop and the supply loop. One for discharging, and one for charging. This is in accordance to the example file. The use side is connected to the demand loop. The source side is connected to the supply loop.
The other possibility of the error message is the ordering or naming of the branches in the branch list.
They must be listed according to the connection sequence in the loop, starting from the supply loop inlet node, normally a pipe with an pump object.

************* Beginning Zone Sizing Calculations
** Severe ** ThermalStorage:ChilledWater:Stratified = TES TANK:
** ~~~ ** ...match to PlantLoop not found.
** ~~~ ** ...could not find matching PlantLoop for BranchList=CONDENSER DEMAND BRANCHES.
** Fatal ** Errors found in getting ThermalStorage:ChilledWater:Stratified input. Preceding condition causes termination.
...Summary of Errors that led to program termination:
..... Reference severe error count=1
..... Last severe error=ThermalStorage:ChilledWater:Stratified = TES TANK:
************* Warning: Node connection errors not checked - most system input has not been read (see previous warning).
************* Fatal error -- final processing. Program exited before simulations began. See previous error messages.
