Hi Paul,

I'm also trying to take the Parasitics Consumptions from SAM but using CSP Trough Physical model.

Which are the parameter regarding these consumptions? These indicated below?:

-Fixed parasitic load (MWh), Hourly
-Power cycle/TES pumping power (MWh), Hourly
-Field pumping power (MWh), Hourly
-Balance of plant parasitic load (MWh), Hourly
-Cooling system parasitic power (MWh), Hourly
-Collector drives electric consumption (MWh), Hourly
-Auxiliary heater operation parasitic load (MWh), Hourly

In previous versions of SAM, SAM calculated the difference between online and offline parasitics. Is there anywhere in physical 2011.12.2 version?

Thanks in advance
