<div>I ran the file you sent - it has heating consumption values, unmet hours is just 200. Strange thing is that the % of hours should be 2.2% or so, instead it is 8.2% - not sure why that is happening - may be the calc procedures have changed for the % calcs?</div>

while the proposed building had had unmet cooling hours (successfully resolved).
