Hi, i'm studying about ess scheduling with this project, and experiencing some issues.

At First, I used 'Model_Parameters_Template' file to run case without changing the values. I activated Battery, PV, ICE, DA. In the timeseries_results file column of 'ice gen Electric Generation(kW) was either 0 or 8000. I couldn't figure out why ICE is not Generating power between 0 and 8000. I even looked up to model_parameters_file and i found there are value for min_power.

So, I used '028 - 028-DA_FR_SR_NSR_battery_pv_ice_month' in test/model_params instead. However, in this case column of 'ice gen Electirc Generation(kW) is found out be zero for all time. I tried to change some values.. but nothing happened, ice gen was always 0.

I checked the objective function and constraints. As the objective functions are set to be minimize, and if there are no site loads, isn't it common sense to generate power lower than rated capacity?? Or am i the one who can not understand and analyze the results... I having hard time with the results..pleas help me...
