Probably because the performance curve results for energy are not 0? The user must decide what components consume energy.

I have modeled the packaged thermal storage cooling coil. From the simulation results, I observe that when the ice storage system is in discharge only mode there is some power consumption by the HVAC system. This power consumption is by fans, pumps and the cooling coils. Why are the cooling coils consuming power during the discharge only mode?
