<div>Hi Ahmed,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I've never heard of negative energy results being reported in the BEPS/BEPU reports. I don't doubt it instance, but there must be an incorrect input that is causing this.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It would help us to help you if you would share your .pd2 & .inp file (and your weather file if it is non-standard.) and we can look through your file to help you.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>Pasha<br><br></div>
