Which node causes the deficits in my heat load #1454

Open DorinevanderVlies opened 7 years ago

DorinevanderVlies commented 7 years ago

Description

I have a LES. At certain points in time I have a deficit in my heat load.

The technologies and heat sources were defined by the export from ETModel to ETM-SA. I did change the distribution of the total space heating demand over the different types of houses. In this scenario some (free standing houses) have a higher demand than others (appartments). I think the capacity of the standard heat pump air technology is not sufficient for my demand.

Questions

Is it possible to see at which nodes these deficits occur? Is it possible to see whether the deficits are caused by hot water or space heating?

Unfortunately the answer to both is currently no.

My approach to this problem in the past has been to clone the LES, eliminate all non-heat technologies and then remove heat techs one-by-one, observing the effect on the heat deficit after each removal.

In this case the problem is insufficient central heat production to meet demand through the "Households space heating / hot water district heating" technologies on the "A1-app-warmtenet" node. I created a clone with all technologies removed from that node and the deficit disappeared.

Thanks @antw, shall I keep this issue open, as I think it would be a nice enhancement?
