[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: ElectricLoadCenter:Storage:Battery

["Shaun Duerr sduerr85@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all, 

I have a battery storage system set up with a PV system. I am able to track the discharge of the battery and the SOC of it. However I have been unable to set up my run so that the battery/PV system will charge. 

The Engineering Reference document states that if the power generated is larger than the power used, it will charge, however I am having a hard time getting this to work. 

I have set up a large PV array that generates more than is being used, but will not charge the battery. 

Is there some fundamental issue I am missing? Is there an example case that shows a battery system charging?
