Questions

1. TOD output labels “Energy” to “Thermal energy” and “Power” to “Thermal power” and units from “kWh” to “kWht” based on other output updates - is that correct?
2. Suspect outputs - are we going through in detail in this pull request?

I'm seeing BTM outputs for the IPH Tower Molten Salt / Single Owner configuration that I don't think belong:

@taylorbrown75, @tyneises Do we want to add a Copy schedule from TOD Factors page button like is available for CSP configurations?

@tyneises , @cpaulgilman - just checking that the electricity bill and expenses are what we want and we want to eliminate any exports - correct?

@cpaulgilman, the BTM outputs (e.g. exports, bill with system, etc.) are not specific to the IPH/SO models. Whenever the "Use retail electricity rate(s)" option on the Electricity Purchases page for all the FOM configurations:

the outputs you mentioned appear in the data tables (e.g. PVWatts/SO):

Should we make a separate issue for all FOM configurations that use retail rates or address for cmod_singleowner_heat in this pull request? The issue is most notable for the IPH models since the "Use PPA or market prices" Electricity Purchases option is not available (e.g. MSPT IPH/SO):

I agree with making a separate issue for FOM to suppress electricity bill outputs when retail rates are not used, and also to not show outputs like "without system" and "bill savings" that don't apply. See #2030

(When I was reviewing earlier, I didn't notice the Electricity Purchases page because I'm used to seeing it at the bottom of the input buttons for other configurations. My mistake.)
