I think I have seen this when the kW value is less than 0.5. I think some rounding occurs in the report creation. Does that apply for your system?

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Summary reports problem - Demand end-use is 0 W, while energy end-use is not 0kWh
Dear group,
Has anyone encountered this problem before? The summary report shows 0 W in the Demand End Use Components Summary table, while still having energy reported for that end-use not 0?
This happened in different projects and for different end-use categories, eg. this case Exterior lighting, or on another project cooling and heating.
Any thoughts on what might be the problem?
Regards,
Santiago
