Hi Virgínia, Are you using the most updated OpenStudio component? There has been several updates recently. What is the version/date on the component?

Thanks Virginia. I was asking about the version of OpenStudio component itself. Thanks.

Virginia,

The plant details really are not working at the moment (hence, their placement in WIP) and I imagine that connecting them to the systems component could be the cause of the error. I would just remove the plant details and the airside details since PTHP doesn't have any air or water loops anyway. I was able to run the PTHP system fine on my machine:

I'm using OpenStudio 1.10.0 and I venture our differences in versions could be another possible explanation. If you upload your GH file, we can find out for sure.

Virginia,

The error is happening because in the new version of OpenStudio naming of EnrgyPlus folder has changed. I just updated the OpenStudio component to work with the newer version of OpenStudio. Update your definition and use the latest version from github or just copy it from the attached file.
