Error when the demand = 0 #36

Hi, For our case study, we need to model a mall building which has no SH and DHW demands. When I try to optimize it (the demand file is correct), there are several issues:

There is a min capacity for SH storage and DHW storage that makes an error because the demand is 0
I ried to deactivate them but then the error occurs while creating the results shetts because the storage data is missing Is there a possibility to adapt the code to make it work ? Thanks, Vincent

Change the building.py to be able to create buildings without heat demand. Converters wih heat outputs should parameterized accordingly. Check vizualition also in energy_network.py
